The RAPP Transmission Project is a ~200 km, 400 kV double-circuit power transmission line built and commissioned to evacuate and transmit power from the Rajasthan Atomic Power Project (near Kota) to Shujalpur in Madhya. It facilitates the strengthening of the transmission capability between the northern and western sectors of India’s power grid. The project was undertaken in conjunction with the Rajasthan Atomic Power Project established by Nuclear Power Corporation of India. It operates one EHV overhead transmission line of approximately 403 ckms in the states of Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, comprised of one 400 kV D/C line from Rajasthan to Madhya Pradesh. The project was fully commissioned in November 11, 2016.
For evacuation of power from RAPP-5 to 8(1840 MW), RAPP–5&6 (440 MW) and RAPP-7&8 (2x700 MW), following composite system were developed in a phased manner matching with generation projects.
For RAPP -5&6 generation, following transmission system have been commissioned and are in operation.
RAPP – Kankroli 400kV D/C line
RAPP – Kota 400kV S/C line
For RAPP -7&8 generation, following transmission system have been planned
RAPP – Jaipur 400kV D/C line with one ckt via Kota
RAPP – Shujalpur 400kV D/C line
