Transformer bushings may remain out of the spotlight in the larger story of India’s power grid build-out. However, their contribution to the nation’s energy future is becoming more critical than ever, notes Keyur Shah.
Unlocking MSME solar via innovative finance can potentially de-risk power grids and cement India’s manufacturing superpower status, notes Anand Jain.
Design is a strategic way of approaching problems, one that begins before products exist and continues throughout their operational lifecycle, notes Patrizio Cionfoli.
India’s next wave of digital infrastructure will not be decided by who can raise capital fastest or secure the most land. It will be decided by who controls the megawatt, notes Ankit Saraiya.
Since sulphur hexafluoride (SF₆) is colorless and odorless, leaks are not perceptible without specialized detection equipment. Reliable gas detection systems are therefore critical to enable timely intervention and safeguarding maintenance teams working in GIS installations, notes Gaurav Bawa.
As renewable ecosystems become more connected, the sector will be judged not only by how fast it can scale clean power, but by how securely and reliably it can sustain it, notes Dhirendra Rajput.
Asset monitoring, now increasingly supported by digital and remote-monitoring technologies, is no longer a supplementary capability but a key enabler of reliable and efficient power generation, notes Matias Conde.
India’s power sector is experiencing rapid expansion, underpinned by substantial investment in transmission corridors, renewable energy integration, distribution strengthening, and grid-modernisation. As projects are executed at scale across multiple geographies, Engineering, Procurement and Construction contracts in the power sector have become increasingly complex and risk sensitive. Consequently, delays arising from unforeseen site conditions, regulatory amendments, protracted approval timelines, volatility in material prices, shortages of skilled manpower, and performance-related disputes have become recurring challenges for companies operating in this sector, notes Suchitra Maharana.
As we move forward into 2026, we are taking a moment to look back at 2025—a year of progress for Toshiba’s Transmission & Distribution (T&D) business in India. This is a recap of our key milestones and indigenous achievements from the past year, along with a glimpse of what lies ahead. From expanding our manufacturing footprint to delivering India’s first Mobile Gas-Insulated Switchgear (m-GIS) solution, here is how we worked to strengthen the country’s power infrastructure and support its Make-in-India vision, notes Mr. Hiroshi Furuta, Chairman & Managing Director, Toshiba Transmission & Distribution Systems (India) Pvt Ltd.
Energy transition is not only generating cleaner power, it is about efficient delivery. In this reckoning, advanced switchgear and high- voltage infrastructure are not just supporting components, they are indeed core enablers of grid performance, notes Keyur Shah.
