Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) today said it has secured two breakthrough orders from Indian Railways for the development, manufacture and supply of 3-Phase IGBT-based propulsion systems for Electric Locomotives and AC Electric Multiple Units (EMUs), hitherto the domain of leading multinational corporations.
Cumulatively valued at Rs 300 crore, the orders for 40 sets for 1400 HP AC EMUs and 30 sets for 6000 HP Electric Locomotives , have been bagged amidst stiff competition from leading international suppliers, a BHEL release said here today.
These orders would give BHEL an opportunity to supply the system within the shortest possible time to Indian Railways in order to become the established supplier for this technology.
