HVDC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM IN INDIA

Due to rapid development of population in every country
consumption of power is increasing twice with in a
period of 7 to 12 years.
In order to meet these requirements we need a efficient
and bulk power transmission system with more
reliability.
In India the national power grid is operated from Delhi it
comprises of five regional grids
Northern, Western, Southern, Eastern and North Eastern

 The HVDC Sileru-Barsoor is a bipolar HVDC with a voltage

of 200 kV and a transmission rate of 400 MW.
The HVDC Sileru Barsoor couples two asynchronously
operated parts of Indian electricity mains over a 196
kilometers long overhead line
The HVDC Sileru-Barsoor is a high voltage direct current
transmission system between Sileru,A.P in India and
Barsoor,M.P in India, which went in service in 1989
