Larsen & Toubro's Power Transmission & Distribution business has secured multiple EPC orders worth Rs 1,000-2,500 crore in the current quarter to build transmission lines and substations in Saudi Arabia.
L&T Construction will undertake engineering, design, procurement, and construction of more than 400KM of 380kV overhead transmission lines and a new 230kV gas-insulated substation with associated automation and protection systems, the company said in a regulatory filing.
"The transmission network strengthening augurs well for providing reliable, safe and efficient electricity supply as Saudi Arabia is embarked on an ambitious National Renewable Energy Program towards attaining optimal generation mix as envisaged in its strategic vision for 2030," the filing said.
These repeat orders from the largest electric energy system provider in the MENA region, the filing added, demonstrate the core strengths of the business and the customer confidence it has gained over decades of its association in Saudi Arabia.
