Power construction and manufacturing
Equipment manufacturing
TBEA operates a manufacturing base in Karjan,Gujarat,India,under the name TBEA Energy (India) Pvt Ltd.,where it produces transformers,solar equipment,and cables for markets across India,Africa,and the Middle East. [2]
Construction engineering
TBEA has undertaken transmission and power infrastructure projects globally.
- In Zambia,TBEA signed a US$334 million EPC contract in 2010 with ZESCO to build 330 kV high-voltage transmission lines,supplying Eastern,Luapula,Northern,and Muchinga Provinces. The project broke ground in 2012. [4]
- In The Gambia,TBEA constructed the 23 MW Jambur Solar Power Station,commissioned in March 2024. It was part of the Gambia Electricity Restoration and Modernization Project (GERMP) with funding from the World Bank,European Investment Bank,and EU. [5]
Power stations
In Kyrgyzstan,TBEA was selected to reconstruct a power plant in Bishkek. The decision,reportedly influenced by political pressure,led to controversy over inflated costs and corruption allegations against local officials. The plant suffered a breakdown in 2018 shortly after reopening,but preliminary investigations indicated the failure occurred in a section not rebuilt by TBEA. [6] [7]
Mining
TBEA has expanded into the mining sector as part of its overseas investment strategy. In 2015,the company was granted a mining license by the government of Tajikistan to develop the Upper Kumarg and Eastern Duoba gold deposits in the Sughd Region. This arrangement was made in exchange for TBEA’s construction of the Dushanbe-2 combined heat and power (CHP) plant,a major energy infrastructure project in the capital city. [11] TBEA had previously been awarded exploration rights to the deposits in 2013. [12] By 2019,gold extraction had begun at the sites,and as of late 2021,TBEA had completed about half of the construction of a new gold processing facility in Ayni district. The total cost of the project was estimated at 272 million somonis (approximately US$24 million). [13]
In 2023,TBEA expressed interest in investing in Ethiopia’s new energy and mining sectors,in discussions with the Ethiopian ambassador to China. [14]
