Hartek Power commissions 3 substations for 38-MW solar projects

Engineering firm Hartek Power today said it has commissioned three substations for solar power projects worth about Rs 220 crore in Punjab and Chhattisgarh during April-June this year.

"The company has commissioned three substations on complete EPC basis for 38-MW solar power projects worth about Rs 220 crore in Punjab and Chhattisgarh in the first quarter of financial year 2015-16," Hartek Power said in a statement.

With this, the firm has so far been able to commission substations for 130-MW solar power projects worth about Rs 700 crore.

The Chandigarh-based company has commissioned two substations in Punjab, including a 66/11-KV substation for a 4-MW solar plant in Hoshiarpur for Aditya Medisales (Sun Pharma Group) and a 66/11-KV substation for a 4-MW solar project in Nabha awarded to Earth Solar.

It has also commissioned the second phase of a 132/11-KV substation for a 30-MW solar project awarded to Azure Power in Chhattisgarh.

Hartek Power is holding final-stage talks for executing substations for close to 200-MW solar projects in India in the current financial year.

"In line with our core value of timely execution of projects, we have completed these projects within the specified deadlines. We specialise in fast-track execution," Hartek Power CMD Hartek Singh said.

Having constructed more than 100 substations in the past seven years, Hartek Power is operating projects in 17 states across the country.

The company has also won substation orders worth Rs 60 crore from various state electricity boards, which will be executed in the current financial year.
