Rahee Infratech starts Mumbai Metro Line-9 track work at Miragaon

Rahee Infratech commenced ballastless track casting for Mumbai Metro's 11.38 km Line-9, a significant step in the project that will link Dahisar East and Mira Bhayandar with eight elevated stations. The standard gauge rails of 1435 mm, part of Package CA-167, will be installed by Rahee on the northern extension of the city's new 31.05 km Red Line. This line will eventually connect Mira Bhayandar, Dahisar East, Andheri East, and CSMIA Terminal 2 through 23 stations. The elevated section of Line-9 is being constructed by J Kumar Infraprojects under civil Package CA-48, a project that began in March 2020. The first U-girder for the viaduct, which includes several double-decker sections, was launched in April 2021. In March 2024, Rahee was awarded the Rs 778.5 million track-work contract for Line-9 by the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA), with a completion deadline of 1.5 years. Additionally, Leena Powertech Engineers was declared the lowest bidder for Line-7A and Line-9's electrification contract (CA-176) in July. However, it's expected to be another 2.5 years before both extensions of the Red Line are operational. (Metrorailguy)

Land conflicts, population density hinder India's renewable energy goals

A recent report by the Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) suggests that India’s renewable energy (RE) capacity could theoretically surpass 24,000 gigawatts (GW), though achieving just a portion of this—approximately 7,000 GW needed for net-zero emissions by 2070—will be challenging. The obstacles stem from issues related to land and water availability, as well as population density. The report, titled "Unlocking India’s Renewable Energy and Green Hydrogen Potential: An Assessment of Land, Water, and Climate Nexus," highlights major challenges as India aims to grow from it..
