MARCH 20259TATA POWER PARTNERS WITH SCHNEIDER FOR SF6-FREE POWER SYSTEML&T BAGS KEY POWER INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS IN INDIA AND OVERSEASSchneider Electric has obtained a significant agreement from Tata Power Company Limited in Mumbai for the installation of 11kV SF6-Free Ring Main Units (RMUs) employing Schneider Electric's advanced RM AirSeT SF6 Free technology.This partnership represents an important achievement in India's path to sustainable and effective power distribution.The project can achieve a reduction of approximately 75 percent in Tata Power's carbon footprint compared to Larsen & Toubro (L&T) is further strengthening its hold in the power transmission segment with the acquisition of massive orders in the domestic and international traditional SF6 RMUs. Furthermore, Tata Power may gain up to 50 percent in cost savings throughout the entire duration of these RMUs.Dr. Nilesh Kane, Chief Distribution (Mumbai), Tata Power highlighted the significance of this collaboration, and added, "We are committed to ensuring that our energy is greener, cleaner and more sustainable. Therefore, we are proud to spearhead sustainability in Mumbai by being the first to adopt SF6-Free technology.These RM AirSeT units will play a vital role in our efforts to reduce environmental impact while ensuring efficient and reliable power distribution. This partnership with Schneider Electric is a testament to our shared vision of a greener and more sustainable future.The new SF6 Free RMAirSeT uses pressurized air instead of the powerful SF6 gas, making it eco-friendly. It is also robust & designed to meet highest standards of performance & durability. Moreover, the durable systems possess the greatest resilience, extending the overall lifespan of the mechanism.This partnership between Schneider Electric and Tata Power establishes a new standard for sustainable electricity distribution in India. Through the implementation of SF6-Free technology, Tata Power is pioneering the development of a cleaner and more efficient energy environment. markets. With the increasing demand for dependable energy infrastructure, L&T's power transmission and distribution segment has been assigned flagship projects that enable the integration of renewable energy sources and grid strengthening.In India, L&T has been awarded a contract to undertake the implementation of transmission line sections in a Renewable Energy Zone in Uttar Pradesh. The project aligns with the country's drive to develop clean energy infrastructure. The company has also been awarded a contract for the overall construction of a transmission line to deliver electricity from a non-fossil fuel power generation facility in the southern region of the country.Expanding its global presence, L&T has bagged an order in Saudi Arabia to deliver a Gas Insulated Substation (GIS), an important piece of equipment for hassle-free power transmission. In Abu Dhabi, the firm has been entrusted with the development of a new grid station, thereby increasing its energy solutions strength.Larsen & Toubro is a $27 billion Indian multinational and industry leader in engineering and construction with a strong footprint in diverse segments like infrastructure, power, and technology. Larsen & Toubro keeps leading the way in new green energy solutions around the world.
