Description

The Chennai-Kanyakumari Industrial Corridor: Power Sector Investment Project will address the core problem of meeting the expected industrial power demand to ensure reliable power supply by augmenting the power transmission capacity between the southern part of the state (Madurai-Thoothukudi), the northern region (Chennai), and the western region (Coimbatore) at 765 kilovolt (kV) level. The proposed investment is expected to provide a transmission corridor to evacuate power from the renewable and thermal power plants to be located in Madurai-Thoothukudi area and supply industrial hubs in the Chennai-Madurai area and in Coimbatore.
