ABB India provides power solutions to stadiums and metros in Lucknow

ABB India's power management technology is enabling the return of competitive international cricket to Lucknow at the new Ekana International Cricket Stadium and Sports Complex.

This new stadium forms part of the Uttar Pradesh government's vision to make Lucknow, the state capital city, a hub for sporting activities with facilities to match standards seen elsewhere in the world. ABB has also supplied substation technology with innovative hybrid switchgear for the Sawai Mansingh Cricket Stadium in Jaipur. These facilities have saved space, releasing precious land for other purposes and have improved the reliability and safety of the power supply.

ABB India has also supplied and commissioned 1 MW of solar inverters for the Lucknow Metro Project and leads the market with more than a 30 percent share for solar inverters. This initiative furthers the government directive for mass mobility infrastructure, be it metros or airports, to generate and use more green energy and reduce grid dependence. ABB inverters are the heart of the solar system ensuring the DC solar energy is converted to AC for common usage. They feed power to run lighting, lifts, escalators, air conditioners at the currently functional eight metro stations and the depot. The surplus power currently used to supply the depot will be used also to power future stations on the North-South corridor.
