PowerGrid Energizes Jam Khambhaliya Project

PowerGrid, a key player in India's power sector, has successfully commissioned the Jam Khambhaliya transmission project in Gujarat. This significant milestone marks a crucial advancement in reinforcing the state's power infrastructure, ensuring reliable electricity transmission and distribution across the region. With an investment of billions in the project, PowerGrid aims to enhance the efficiency and resilience of Gujarat's power grid, catering to the increasing energy demands driven by industrial, commercial, and residential sectors.

The Jam Khambhaliya transmission project encompasses the construction of high-voltage transmission lines and associated infrastructure, spanning vast stretches to connect major power generation centres with consumption hubs. By leveraging cutting-edge technology and adhering to stringent quality standards, PowerGrid ensures seamless transmission of electricity, mitigating transmission losses and voltage fluctuations along the network.

This initiative aligns with India's ambitious goals of augmenting its power infrastructure and promoting renewable energy integration into the grid. The project not only strengthens the backbone of Gujarat's power network but also facilitates the integration of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, by enabling efficient transmission from remote generation sites to urban centres.

The 14th RAHSTA Expo, part of the India Construction Festival, will be held on October 9 and 10, 2024, at the Jio Convention Centre in Mumbai. For more details, visit: https://rahstaexpo.com

Airfare hike not tied to increased airport charges; ACI

The Airports Council International (ACI) stated that rising airfares are not linked to increased airport charges. Airport charges are crucial for infrastructure development within the commercial aviation ecosystem, but they remain a minimal part of the overall airfare. Stefano Baronci, Director General of ACI Asia Pacific & Middle East, emphasized that airports are infrastructure-intensive businesses, with costs dominated by maintaining essential infrastructure such as runways, taxiways, aprons, and terminal buildings. He noted that neglecting the capital expenditure needed to support future g..
