All members of IEEMA stood with people of Odisha with a commitment to take up on priority any assistance which the State Government and Power Utilities needed for faster restoration of the electrical infrastructure. Supreme & Co along with other members of IEEMA have supported the restoration work. India’s first indigenously developed Steel based ERS tower by Supreme & Co Pvt. Ltd was used to substitute the wrecked 132 kV towers between Lilo and Puri-Samkuha. This enables charging between Puri Grid and Samkuha Grid to transfer bulk load of 70 MW.
The team overcame some of the challenges successfully at harsh site condition of scorching heat, inaccessible site location with other technical challenges of stringing and clearance. Harish Agarwal, IEEMA President and Supreme CEO, has deputed an exclusive emergency response team of engineers for successful execution of project. His attitude towards the community service at such natural calamity could make such challenging task on ground swiftly. His team members have restored the tower in five hours using ERS structure. This swift restoration has been possible with smooth co-ordination among planning and execution team.
