Damodar Valley Corporation plans to develop a 1500 MW (6*250 MW) pumped storage hydropower project located at the Lugu village, in the Bokaro district of Jharkhand. The forest clearance Stage-1 has been granted by the DFO but the stage-2 is pending at DFO. WAPCOS Ltd. has prepared the DPR report and it was approved by the CEA. EIA/EMP report prepared by the consultant R.S Envorolink Technology Pvt. Ltd. and the report has been approved by the MoEF. The SIA report was also been completed. EC for the project has been approved by the MoEF. Tata Consulting Engineers (TCE) has been selected as PMC for the project. The construction of the approach roads to the dam site has been completed. Technical bids have been completed for the civil works package(lot -1 &2 ) and in the same package Patel engineering, and Gamon Infra. AFCONS, GVK Infra. HCC is the qualified bidder in technical bids. The price bid will open soon. Preparation of tender is in progress for the hydro-mechanical works and its specification is yet to be finalized. Further bids are expected soon. The project comprises 2 reservoirs i.e. one at the lower elevation and another one at the upper elevation. During peak hours, power will be generated by releasing the water of the upper reservoir through the conductor, turbines, and generator installed at the powerhouse to the lower reservoir. he project requirements are: load cum excavator, hydraulic excavator, dumpers, jack hammer, water sprinkler machine, aggregate crushing plant, grouting pump, needle vibrator, air water jet blaster, drilling machines, DG sets, bending and cutting machine, fuel/water tankers, electric overhead traveling crane (EOT crane), mobile crane, air compressor, tunnel boring machine, dozers, piles, gantry crane, spillway radial gates and hydraulic hoists, spillway stop logs, discharge pipe, valves, main inlet, intake trash rack, intake fixed wheel gates, desilting chamber gate, surge shaft gates, draft tube gate, trash rack cleaning machine, sluice gates, penstock, actuation system, flap gates, reversible pump-turbine (Francis type), alternator, Cooling water system, Drainage & Dewatering System, HP / LP Compressed Air, power transformer and its auxiliaries, CT&PT, pumps, oil pressure unit, water seal and air seal, guide bearings, protection relays, lightning arrester panels, battery bank, SCADA, unit control board, sensors, console, display panels, GIS, cables, transmission lines, nozzles, among others.

RFQ for the HM works is likely to be floated in Q1 2023
