Tata Projects has successfully executed a 41.42-km transmission line project of 500kV in Thailand. A consortium of Tata Projects Ltd and TEDA Company Ltd was earlier awarded this prestigious transmission line project by the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT).
This 500kV Roi Et 2 – Chaiyaphum 2 Transmission Line is part of the transmission system improvement project in north eastern, lower northern, central regions and Bangkok Area. It will further assist in enhancing system security.
Completion of this project will support the ASEAN Power Grid (APG) system under the Alternative Energy Development Plan (AEDP) of the government.
Across Thailand’s transmission line network, Tata Projects consortium is the only one to have used safety fall protection system during project’s erection and stringing activities.
The project has provided opportunities to small Thai sub-contractors (115 & 230 kV) to work for 500kV under the guidance of Tata Projects’ expert team. This will ultimately help to increase resources, especially manpower skills in Thailand for execution of 500kV projects in future.
