Texmaco Rail & Engineering Limited has successfully completed the erection and commissioning of Hydro-Mechanical (HM) systems for the landmark 2000 MW Subansiri Lower Hydroelectric Project, marking a major milestone in India’s renewable energy journey. The project is located along the border of Arunachal Pradesh and Assam and stands as one of the most significant hydropower developments in the country.
The Subansiri Lower Hydroelectric Project, developed by NHPC Limited, has already achieved the Commercial Operation Date for its first generating unit, with three additional units commissioned. The remaining four units are planned for phased commissioning through FY 2026–27, strengthening India’s clean energy capacity in a structured and timely manner.
As the sole Hydro-Mechanical contractor, Texmaco Rail was responsible for the complete lifecycle of HM systems, including design, manufacture, supply, erection, testing, and commissioning. These systems are critical to the safe and efficient operation of hydropower units and play a central role in ensuring the seamless commissioning of the project. The successful execution reflects Texmaco’s technical depth and proven capability in handling complex, large-scale infrastructure assignments.
With an installed capacity of 2000 MW, the Subansiri Lower Hydroelectric Project is the largest renewable energy project in India. Once fully operational, it will supply substantial clean electricity to the national grid, significantly reducing dependence on fossil fuels and supporting India’s long-term climate and sustainability goals.
Texmaco Rail’s involvement in this project reinforces its leadership in hydro-mechanical engineering and its growing footprint in the energy and infrastructure space. The successful delivery adds to the company’s expanding portfolio of high-impact projects and strengthens its position as a trusted partner in India’s renewable energy ecosystem.
