Hitachi ABB Power Grids India on Thursday said it has bagged an order worth over Rs 100 crore from HPCL Rajasthan Refinery Ltd (HRRL).

The project will strengthen mission-critical power infrastructure at HRRL’s Barmer refinery and contribute to the region’s economic development, a company statement said.

Hitachi ABB Power Grids India, listed on the Indian stock exchanges as "ABB Power Products and Systems India Ltd” has won the project from HRRL, a joint venture between state-run Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd and the government of Rajasthan, the statement added.
