Chinese entrepreneur powering up India

Electrical shortages offer opportunity for energy company, An Baijie reports in New Delhi.

For the people of India, power outages are a frequent and inconvenient fact of life, but for Chinese entrepreneurs such as Chen Zhijin, the country's problematic power grid presents huge business opportunities.

Chen is a member of the board of TBEA Energy (India), which was established in Vadodara in the western Indian state of Gujarat on June 28. The company, owned and operated by Tebian Electric Apparatus, China's first listed transformer enterprise, produces power-related equipment, including electrical transformers that could play a crucial role in the upgrading of India's power industry.
