The Indian company PFC Consulting, a wholly owned subsidiary of PFC Ltd, has invited bids for developers for the construction of an interstate transmission system (ISTS) to evacuate up to 14 GW from renewable projects in Gurajat, India (PFC press release, 12/03/2026). The selected bid would develop the project on a Build, Own, Operate and Transfer (BOOT) basis, and the project is expected to reach completion within 36 months of the contract award.
