Mumbai, August 21, 2025 – HEC Infra Projects Limited today announced that it has received a work order worth ₹7.15 crore from M/s Advait Energy Transitions Limited. And no, this isn’t just another “install a few wires and bill the client” type of contract. This one is big – we’re talking about designing, installing, testing, and commissioning a 185 MW Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) along with a 220 KV substation at Charal, Sanand GIDC, Gujarat, integrated with GETCO’s 400 KV substation.
If you don’t speak “engineer”, let’s simplify: this project is like building one giant power bank for the state of Gujarat, except instead of charging phones, it charges the entire grid.
The Order in Detail
- Client: M/s Advait Energy Transitions Limited
- Scope of Work: Designing, installation, testing, commissioning of 185 MW BESS with 220 KV substation.
- Project Site: Charal, Sanand GIDC, GETCO 400 KV substation, Gujarat.
- Contract Value: ₹7.15 crore
- Execution Timeline: 12 months
- Transaction Nature: Not a related party transaction (Translation: Nobody’s uncle, aunt, or cousin is secretly cashing in on this).
Why This Matters
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are the future of power management. In plain terms:
- Store energy when nobody’s using it (like when everyone’s asleep).
- Release it when everyone suddenly wants electricity (like during IPL finals when every household has the AC, TV, and fridge running at once).
- Reduce reliance on the grid, save money, and keep things running even during blackouts.
Think of it as the “Netflix buffer” for electricity – keeping the lights on smoothly even if the supply gets choppy.
Company Commentary
HEC Infra Projects noted that this win isn’t just a one-off lucky shot.
