Jharkhand Urja Sancharan Nigam Ltd (JUSNL) has advanced its modernisation agenda with a two-location turnkey scheme combining new construction and dismantling—marking a new benchmark for Substation package contract in India.

 The project spans a 132 kV grid substation at Jadugoda and bay extensions at Dhalbhumgarh, integrating civil, electrical, and protection systems under one EPC.  Unlike typical state bids, this tender folds dismantling within the same bill of quantities, shifting full HSE and insurance responsibility to contractors. 

That structural change raises financial exposure but strengthens client oversight, an emerging pattern within Substation package contract in India. The absence of price-variation clauses further magnifies cost risk amid metal-price volatility.

Only two firms—Reliance Elektrik Works and ABN Tower & Transmission—submitted financial bids, signalling limited participation due to site complexity. The tender’s 40-day evaluation delay implies close scrutiny of safety compliance. Analysts view this as a location-specific trial rather than a broad trend, though its principles could influence future Substation package contract in India frameworks.

By uniting brownfield dismantling and new-build execution, JUSNL demonstrates how state utilities are tightening accountability within Substation package contract in India.
