Tata Power strengthens northern grid with new transmission line

Tata Power Company Limited announced the commissioning of the 400 kV Koteshwar-Rishikesh transmission line, a significant addition to North India's power corridor. This line will facilitate the evacuation of 1,000 MW of hydropower from the Tehri–Koteshwar generation complex in Uttarakhand. It benefits six northern states and three union territories by enhancing regional energy security and grid reliability. This project marks the third major commissioning under the NRSS project.

The project, executed by NRSS XXXVI Transmission Limited, a joint venture involving Tata Power and ICICI Bank, was completed within one year despite challenging Himalayan terrain, reaching altitudes over 1,816 meters above sea level. This demonstrates Tata Power's capabilities in high-precision execution and sustainable infrastructure development. With this addition, Tata Power now operates or has under execution 7,083 circuit kilometers of transmission lines across India.

In related news, Tata Power will host a physical group meeting with institutional investors on Monday, December 15, 2025, at the Power Distribution Technology Centre, Bhubaneswar. This meeting is subject to change, and no unpublished price-sensitive information will be disclosed.
