The growing power demand in the country is turning out to be great news for international electrical equipment manufacturers. Power majors like Tata Power Company (TPC), Reliance Energy (REL), National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) and Larson & Tubro (L&T) are currently in negotiations with several global leaders for equipment orders that could add up to millions of dollars.
TPC is in talks with Japanese companies Hitachi, Mitsubishi and Toshiba for super-critical technology, said sources. REL has already joined hands with Shanghai Electric for sourcing equipment for its three projects — Hisar (1,200 MW), Yamunanagar (600 MW) and Rosa (1,200 MW). The company is planning to continue the tie-up for its forthcoming projects also, the sources added.
