Tata Power Solar, one of India’s largest integrated solar companies and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Power, bagged India’s largest single solar EPC order of 1GW for approx. Rs 5,500 crore from SJVN Ltd.
This EPC order has been designed keeping in mind the innovative use of ‘Make in India’ cells and modules. The project will be developed under the CPSU scheme of MNRE and will be completed within a period of 24 months. Covering around 5000+ acre of land in Rajasthan, this project aims at reducing around 22,87,128kg of carbon emission and is expected to generate around 2500 million units annually.
Dr. Praveer Sinha, CEO & MD, Tata Power, said “We are proud to have won this mega solar project from SJVN. Implementation of such large project reflects our commitment to the promotion of clean and green energy in the country and strengthens our position as the leading solar EPC player.”
Tata Power Solar has always been a pioneer in implementation and commissioning of such large scale renewable projects. With this win of 1GW, the company’s order booking crosses the Rs 12,000 crore with a cumulative portfolio of more than 9.3GW for utility scale renewables projects.
