100 CKM twin HTLS line to strengthen renewable power evacuation from Koppal Solar Energy Zone
Jyoti Structures Limited (JSL), a listed EPC company has announced successful completion and commissioning of the 400 kV Gadag–II Transmission Line project for ReNew Power in Karnataka.
The company in an official statement said that the project comprises 100 circuit kilometres (CKM) of twin High-Temperature Low-Sag (HTLS) transmission lines connecting Gadag Power Station and Koppal Power Station.
The line traverses the districts of Gadag and Koppal, where project teams addressed complex interior terrain, severe right-of-way (ROW) constraints, and challenging soil conditions, including stretches of black cotton soil.
The transmission corridor forms part of the Interstate Transmission System aimed at evacuating renewable energy from the Koppal Solar Energy Zone, which has an estimated generation capacity of 1,500 MW.
The project designed to facilitate seamless transmission of solar power to the national grid, is executed on a Build, Own, Operate and Maintain (BOOM) basis.
Rajesh Kumar Singh, CEO of Jyoti Structures Limited, said the milestone reflects the company’s operational efficiency and commitment to timely project delivery. He noted that the completion comes shortly after the successful charging of another major transmission project, underscoring JSL’s growing role in India’s power infrastructure expansion.
Thee 400 kV line comissioned is expected to enhance grid connectivity for renewable energy projects in the region and ensure efficient evacuation of solar power from Karnataka’s renewable energy zones.
As India accelerates its clean energy transition, strengthening transmission infrastructure remains critical to integrating large-scale renewable generation into the national grid while maintaining grid stability and reliability.
