Anakapalle, a region known for sugarcane production and Buddhist heritage, is undergoing a remarkable industrial evolution. With over 26 upcoming projects amounting to more than Rs 2.5 trillion in investment, Anakapalle is set to become a key player in India's industrial landscape. Notable projects like the NTPC Hydrogen Park and ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel plant are spearheading this transformation, focusing on green energy and steel production, respectively. These initiatives are projected to employ a substantial workforce, with the NTPC Hydrogen Park alone expected to create 61,000 jobs. Moreover, the region is witnessing infrastructure enhancements such as road upgrades and expansions to support the burgeoning industrial sector. The improvements include the Anakapalle–Atchutapuram 4-Lane Upgrade and the Anakapalle–Rajahmundry NH-16 Six-Lane Expansion, aimed at facilitating smoother transportation to SEZs and industrial zones. The proposed Rambilli–Bhogapuram Greenfield Semi Ring Road is another crucial development that will bolster connectivity and economic growth, especially around the upcoming international airport in Bhogapuram. These significant changes mark Anakapalle's transition from a traditional sugarcane production center to a burgeoning industrial hub with promising economic prospects.
