Noel Tata’s BIG move, enters in partnership with…, to install India’s first…, challenge for Anil Ambani’s Reliance Power, Adani Power

Tata Power-DDL, in collaboration with Japan-based Nissin Electric Co Ltd, has commissioned India’s first micro substation with power voltage transformer (PVT) that will provide low-cost and reliable power supply to consumers.

According to a statement, the PVT technology enables direct conversion of high-voltage power from transmission lines into low-voltage power suitable for residential use.

Tata Power-DDL, a leading power utility serves around 9 million consumers in North Delhi.

The project is a part of International Demonstration Project on Japan’s Energy Efficiency Technologies, publicly solicited by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO).

To commence this project, Tata Power Delhi Distribution Ltd (Tata Power -DDL) and Nissin Electric signed a project agreement on August 21, 2024.

The introduction of micro substation with PVT technology is primarily aimed at low cost and reliable power supply to remote load centers with challenging terrains.

It will also be helpful in urban landscapes where there are challenges for network extension to meet the growing load. 

Tata Power’s competitors in the energy sector are power generation companies like Adani Power, Torrent Power and Anil Ambani’s Reliance Power.

This collaboration will help the Tata in direct conversion of high-voltage power from transmission lines and can be a challenge for Anil Ambani’s Reliance Power and Gautam Adani’s Adani Power.
