Power transmission network in Thiruvananthapuram to be strengthened under Transgrid 2.0

Work is expected to kick off soon on two projects aimed at strengthening the power transmission network in the State capital and guaranteeing steady supply.

The Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) has given the go-ahead to two projects that are part of the Transgrid 2.0 scheme designed to strengthen the power transmission network across Kerala. The projects, which fall under the Travancore Lines Package of Transgrid 2.0, are aimed at interconnecting substations with an underground (UG) cable network so that alternate power supply can be smoothly arranged in the event of outages in any of the substations in the region.

Together, the two works are expected to cost a little over ₹106.47 crore.
