In a pivotal move set to revolutionize India’s infrastructure and energy domain, RITES Ltd, the nation’s foremost transport infrastructure consultancy, has inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with NHPC Limited, a key player under the Ministry of Power. This collaboration aims to provide top-notch consultancy services tailored for Rail Infrastructure essential for NHPC’s ambitious hydropower projects.

Central to this partnership is the new rail connectivity, logistics, and accompanying infrastructure, such as the state-of-the-art Rapid Loading Systems (RLS/SILO) and conveyor systems slated for implementation at Pasighat. These innovations will cater to the immense 2880-MW Dibang Multipurpose Project (MPP) in the scenic landscape of Arunachal Pradesh.

Pawan Chowdhry, the Vertical Head at RITES, expressed profound optimism about this alliance, stating, “This strategic union between RITES and NHPC epitomizes the amalgamation of the core strengths of both entities. With RITES donning the hat of the Project Management Consultant, we aim to harness our expertise to render unparalleled solutions for the development of Rail Infrastructure catering to NHPC. This partnership heralds the beginning of an enduring and impactful association.”

As two titans of their respective sectors, RITES and NHPC stand on the precipice of significantly enhancing India’s growth trajectory in both infrastructure and energy sectors.
