Panaji Nears Completion of Key Smart City Project

Imagine Panaji Smart City Development Limited (IPSCDL) is nearing the completion of its Smart Conversion of Overhead to Underground Electrical Network (SCOUGEN) project. This ambitious initiative aims to convert the overhead electrical network in Panaji and Ribandar into an underground system, significantly enhancing the city's power infrastructure.

The project, costing Rs 73.75 crore, involves installing 36 compact substations and extensive cabling work. Begun in January 2019, it is funded under the Smart Cities Mission, reflecting a major step towards modernizing Panaji's infrastructure. The conversion to an underground electrical network promises to reduce power outages and improve reliability. By eliminating overhead cables, the project will also enhance the city's aesthetic appeal and reduce maintenance costs associated with the traditional network.

The completion of the SCOUGEN project will provide residents and businesses with a more stable and efficient power supply, contributing to the overall improvement in the quality of life in Panaji. Additionally, this initiative aligns with the broader goals of the Smart Cities Mission, which aims to promote sustainable and inclusive urban development across India.

The SCOUGEN project is a critical component of Panaji's transformation into a smart city, showcasing the city's commitment to leveraging modern technology for better urban management and services. As the project nears completion, Panaji residents can look forward to a more resilient and reliable electrical infrastructure, setting a benchmark for other cities to follow.
