It also acts as a liaison unit of CPRI with various clients in the region and coordinates their test requirements which are beyond the scope of RTL, Kolkata but within capabilities of Bangalore and other units of CPRI. The major power utilities catered to by RTL in the region are PGCIL, DVC, NTPC, NHPC and state electricity boards of Bihar, Jharkhand, Orissa, Sikkim and West Bengal. Thus, the objective of CPRI Laboratory in Kolkata is to cater to the need of electric power utilities in the eastern region. A large number of power utilities are already in operation in the region. There are 49 power generating stations, 31 and 72 sub-stations of 400 kV and 220 kV capacities respectively in the region.
