New Delhi: ReNew Power, India’s leading renewable energy company, on Wednesday announced that it has commissioned a 110 megawatt (MW) solar generation facility in Rajasthan. As part of the project, ReNew has signed a power purchase agreement with Solar Energy Corporation of India at a tariff of Rs 2.49/kWh and will provide clean energy to the state.
Earlier, the company had announced the commencement of a 300 megawatt (MW) wind power generation facility in the Indian state of Gujarat that was previously awarded to ReNew’s operating subsidiary ReNew Wind Energy (AP2) Private Limited in a competitive E-reverse auction conducted by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI).
The solar project in Jaisalmer district is a part of an eventual 2,300 MW of solar capacity that ReNew is bringing in Rajasthan. The balance of the 2300 MW capacity will generate electricity to be fed into the national grid, helping India achieve the target of 450 gigawatts of clean energy by 2030.
