Three Indian projects have been featured in Global consultancy firm KPMG's infrastructure 100 global project report.

The three Indian projects are: KG-D6, Mundra and Indira Gandhi International Airport, Delhi, KPMG said in a statement here.

The report showcases 100 examples of the great projects that are at different stages of development across the world.

“KG-D6 project not only sets new standards in integrated gas infrastructure projects but it also launches an innovated approach to the sale and transportation of energy, helping to accelerate India's economic growth,” KPMG said The 4,000 MW Mundra plant, one of the nine Ultra Mega Power Projects, uses unfashionable coal, making it the most energy efficient plants vital to India's continuing economic development, it said.

“The IGI Airport Expansion in New Delhi was upgraded and modernised while still functioning, delivering a world-class facility, which is also being turned around in record time,” KPMG said.

Other global projects also featured in the report are: Venice MOSE Flood Barrier (Italy), Green Power Express (U.S.), Mthombo Oil Refinery (South Africa), Incheon Tidal Power Project (South Korea), TAV high speed rail link (Brazil), CRCHUM P3 research centre (Canada), King Abdullah University of Science & Technology (Saudi Arabia) and Greater Manchester Waste in the U.K.

“Financing and building infrastructure is a global challenge today, with notable innovations in different parts of the world. We are already seeing the Indian infrastructure developers becoming a part of the global infrastructure community,” KPMG India's Executive Director, Advisory Services, Manish Agarwal, said.
