ANDRITZ will supply reversible pump turbines, motor-generators and related electromechanical equipment, the company said in a statement.
India is significantly expanding its pumped storage capacity to balance the increase of variable renewable energy from solar and wind in its energy mix. AGEL’s Gandikota pumped storage plant, with a capacity of 1,800 MW, will make a major contribution to this expansion.
“This is the third contract awarded to ANDRITZ by AGEL, following the order for the 500 MW Chitravathi project in 2023 and the 1,500 MW Tarali project earlier this year. The order value is in the low three-digit million-euro range. It is included in ANDRITZ’s order intake for the second quarter of 2025,” the company stated.
It further added that ANDRITZ’s scope for Gandikota includes the design, manufacture, installation, testing, and commissioning of the pumped storage units along with all associated auxiliaries. The project will be executed using ANDRITZ’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in India, supported by its global network.
The repeat order from AGEL underlines ANDRITZ’s strong position in the Indian hydropower market and its expertise in delivering pumped storage solutions, which play a crucial role in ensuring grid stability and supporting the integration of variable renewable energy. ANDRITZ is currently involved in the implementation of five new pumped storage plants in India.
