The company's products and turnkey EPC offerings span the entire voltage spectrum, ranging from 33 kV distribution poles to 765 kV transmission lines, and support major railway electrification and metro expansion projects across India.

Skipper engineering the backbone of smart railway electrification

India is rapidly progressing toward Electricity 4.0, an era defined by digital, decarbonised and distributed energy systems. In this shift, key sectors, such as Railways and Metro, are undergoing major changes. Boosted by technological advancements, forward-looking policies and the urgent need for climate-resilient infrastructure, this transition hinges on the development of future-ready power transmission networks. At the forefront of this movement is Skipper Limited, a trusted leader in manufacturing transmission towers and poles, as well as providing comprehensive EPC solutions that facilitate the next wave of the country’s energy and mobility evolution.

Intelligent Systems

Electricity 4.0 is more than just electrification. It is about intelligent, interconnected energy systems that leverage IoT, smart grids, renewable energy integration, and predictive analytics. The country's vast railway network, one of the largest globally, has pledged to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2030. To realise this vision, the electrification of railway routes, digital system upgrades, and the adoption of energy-efficient technologies are vital.
