Project Detail:
The Scheme envisages construction of:
1) A 71 metre high Rockfill upper dam with central impervious clay core across river Bandu to provide a live storage of 13.49 million cum with Full Reservoir Level at 480.00 metre and Minimum draw down Level at 460.83 metre. Poundage for 1 MCM Irrigation requirement is also proposed in Upper Reservoir. The MDDL for Irrigation depletion is EL 458.75m.
2) A 53 metre high Rockfill lower dam with central impervious clay core across river Bandu to provide a live storage of 13.49 million cum with Full Reservoir Level at 340.44 metre and Minimum Draw down Level at 325.00 metre.
3) An underground power house with four numbers Francis type reversible pump-turbine of capacity 225/255 MW.
4) An underground Transformer cavern with four numbers Power Transformer of capacity 280 MVA.
5) One 400 kV Gas insulated Switchgear.
6) 1687 metre long headrace, Pressure Shaft, draft tube and tailrace tunnel for conveyance of water.
The estimated cost of the Bandu nala Pumped Storage Scheme for option-I and Option-II is Rs. 3809.88 Crore and 4168.82 Crore respectively and the annual energy generation will be of 1642.5 GWh. The project is scheduled to be completed by a period of 5 years 3months.
