Tata Power Delhi Distribution (Tata Power-DDL) and Kyoto-based Nissin Electric have partnered to launch a demonstration project aimed at supplying electricity to remote areas in India using the country鈥檚 first micro substation equipped with a Power Voltage Transformer (PVT). This innovative project is part of Japan's Energy Efficiency Technologies initiative, led by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO). The micro substation will directly convert high-voltage power from nearby transmission lines to low-voltage electricity suitable for residential use, eliminating the need for costly and expansive grid networks. The pilot project features a 100-kVA installation capable of stepping down 66 kilovolts of power to a 240-volt single-phase supply. This project could revolutionize power distribution in India's remote and rural areas, said Gajanan S Kale, CEO of Tata Power-DDL, adding that it offers a cost-effective, space-efficient solution to regions lacking a traditional power grid. The installation will require just 40 square meters of space, making it suitable for areas with limited infrastructure. Nissin Electric's managing director, Kenji Kobayashi, emphasized the company鈥檚 commitment to sustainable development goals (SDGs) through this initiative. Tata Power-DDL and Nissin Electric formalized their partnership for the project on August 21, following NEDO鈥檚 agreement with the Power Finance Corporation earlier this year. The project is expected to address the challenges of providing stable power to underserved regions across India, contributing to the country鈥檚 energy sustainability efforts.
