MOSL: POWER GRID (Buy)-Growth in transmission to continue

Power Grid: Growth in transmission to continue

(PWGR IN, Mkt Cap USD14.0b, CMP INR192, TP INR244, 27% Upside, Buy)

 

We attended Power Grid (PWGR)’s analyst meet. Below are the key takeaways:

Transmission sector to grow 8-9% over the next 10 years

  • PWGR has noted that India’s current low per capita electricity consumption (1/3rd of the world average) and focus on renewable energy (RE) investment will necessitate growth in transmission works.
  • INR478b worth transmission projects corresponding to ~70GW of RE capacities have been identified for awarding. Of this, INR147b has been allocated to regulated tariff mechanism (RTM) and tariff-based competitive bidding (TBCB) projects, while the balance is up for allocation.
  • From a longer-term perspective, company believes that India’s vision to reach 450GW of RE capacity by 2030 (from est. 175GW in 2022) would necessitate incremental investments of INR2.8t within transmission. By and large, PWGR expects the transmission sector to grow at 8-9% over the next 10 years.
