Atlanta Electricals Secures PGCIL Approval for 400 kV Transformer Manufacturing

Atlanta Electricals, a manufacturer of Power Transformers, has received PGCIL’s (Powergrid Corporation of India) approval for up to 400 kV class transformer manufacturing in its Vadod facility within two years from groundbreaking for this facility. 

This approval from PGCIL validates the Atlanta Electricals’ strength and its commitment to get into EHV class transformer supplies, subject to meeting qualifying requirements for 400KV transformers and completion of a short-circuit test. Both PGCIL and NABL nods propel AEL into large EHV tenders, boosting toward peak 63,000 MVA utilisation. 

Niral Patel, Chairman and Managing Director, Atlanta Electricals, said, “This approval validates AEL's recent investments in the Vadod facility, enabling production of high-MVA units at scale that is critical for India's grid modernisation and renewable evacuation. This certification supports AEL for aggressive growth in the renewable energy sector and aligns with India’s INR 9.6 Tn transmission capex through 2032.”
