Part 1

2015 began with good news for Izolyator company. We won tender for supply of RIP-insulated bushings (550, 252 and 126 kV) for PowerGrid Corporation of India Limited (PowerGrid) as completing part for Crompton Greaves (CS) transformer.

PowerGrid is one of the biggest power grid companies in the world and is structurally related to the Ministry of Power Energy of India. The company plays leading role in power supply to all country regions and Power Sector economy development taking part in major Government programs.

It is necessary to emphasize the fact that the transformer will be installed in Delhi, the capital of India. It is an important achievement for Izolyator that can be marked as the first practical result of our work in 2014.

After announcing us winners in the tender PowerGrid set a number of technical questions on RIP-insulated bushings, hence the visit for detailed project discussion of Izolyator team was immediately confirmed.

During the trip we met several representatives of PowerGrid:

Mr. Richik Manas Das, Senior Design Engineer (Engg. -S/S)

Mr. Rajil Srivastava, Deputy General Manager (Engg. -S/S)

Mr. S. B. R. RAO, Chief Manager, Technology Development

The parties worked out all technical issues and agreed on further cooperation.

Part 2

After meeting at PowerGrid, I. Panfilov and Dr. Ashok Singh visited generation company NTPC Limited where they met with Mr. A. K. Jha, Technical Director.

NTPC Limited is the largest state-owned energy company established in 1975 with a purpose of accelerating development of power economy in India. Overall installed capacity of the power plants including joint ventures corresponds to 43128 MW. The company set a target of 128000 MW of total installed capacity by 2032, which will come from diverse sources of energy: 56% — coal, 16% — natural gas, 11% —- nuclear energy, 17% — renewable energy.

The meeting was highly productive and Izolyator presented its power industry record of accomplishment again, especially its long-term cooperation with generation facilities in Russia and other countries.

Both sides concluded that NTPC Limited ambitious goals in generation development in India and Izolyator experience in development, supply and service of HV bushings with RIP insulation are a good platform for taking cooperation further exchanging experience and developing partnership between India and Russia on the world level.

We wish to say special thanks to our partner Dr. Ashok Singh for his valuable support to Russia-India relations development. It is a wide-known fact in Russia that India is not only a leading country on the international arena but also a country that grows and produces wonderful tea. During our visit, Dr. Ashok Singh organized excursion to a tea museum and shop which helped us learn a lot on sorts of tea, ways to make tea and consume. Truly, India is a country of immense opportunities, culture and traditions.
