The agreement, signed through Jakson Green’s subsidiary JGRJ Three Solar Pvt. Ltd., covers a 100 MW grid-connected wind power project in Gujarat. Under the 25-year PPA, GUVNL will procure electricity at a tariff of ₹3.59 per unit, as part of its Wind Tender Phase VIII.

The project is expected to generate more than 300 million kWh annually, offsetting approximately 250,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions each year. It is scheduled to become operational within 24 months.

“This PPA with GUVNL marks a major milestone in our renewable energy journey and reflects our strategic diversification beyond solar and hybrid projects,” saidKannan Krishnan, Managing Director of Jakson Green. “It underlines our commitment to advancing India’s green transition.”
