    417MWp Storage Hydro Power Plant Hydroelectric Project

    Description

    L#20261080

    A large-scale storage hydropower development opportunity located in a hydrologically rich South Asian river basin. The project is a fully engineered, high-head scheme designed for long-term baseload renewable energy generation with strong regional export potential.

    Project Overview

    The project is a storage-based hydropower scheme featuring a major RCC dam and a large reservoir system providing significant active storage capacity. The design enables multi-season regulation and optimized generation during peak demand periods.

    • Installed Capacity: 417 MW
    • Turbine Configuration: 4 × 104.25 MW vertical-axis Pelton units
    • Design Net Head: ~610 m
    • Design Discharge: 78.4 m³/s
    • Project Type: Storage Hydropower (High Head)
    • Status: Ready to Build Project

    Dam & Reservoir

    A major curved gravity RCC dam forms a large reservoir system with substantial storage enabling seasonal regulation.

    • Dam Height: 248 m
    • Reservoir Total Storage: 474 million m³
    • Live Storage: 350 million m³
    • Spillway: Ogee, non-gated overflow designed for extreme flood handling up to PMF conditions
    • Flood Handling: Designed for extreme hydrological scenarios including PMF-level inflows

    Waterway System

    The project features a highly engineered hydraulic layout designed for high-head energy transfer:

    • ~8.2 km concrete-lined headrace tunnel (horse-shoe profile)
    • Surge shaft system (165 m high, 16 m diameter)
    • Multi-section steel-lined pressure shafts and drop shafts
    • Underground powerhouse and transformer caverns
    • Fully optimized high-pressure conveyance system for efficiency and stability

    Powerhouse

    • Underground powerhouse complex
    • Pelton turbine configuration optimized for high-head operation
    • Robust geological setting with sandstone host rock conditions

    Transmission & Grid Integration

    • ~112 km high-voltage transmission line
    • 400 kV double-circuit design
    • Direct interconnection to a major regional substation hub

    Energy Output

    • Annual Generation: ~1,280 GWh
    • Firm Energy: ~672 GWh
    • Secondary Energy: ~608 GWh
    • Strong seasonal load balancing and export capability

    Estimated Project Cost (OPCC)

    • Total CAPEX: ~USD 1.3 – 1.4 billion (depending on transmission scope)
    • Fully itemized civil, electro-mechanical, hydro-mechanical, and infrastructure components included

    Key Investment Highlights

    • Large-scale storage hydropower asset with high head efficiency
    • Long-life infrastructure with underground powerhouse design
    • Strong geological and hydrological resource base
    • High flexibility for peak load and export markets
