Tata Power Green Commissions 225 MW

Tata Power Green Energy Limited (TPGEL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Power, has commissioned a 225MW Hybrid power project in Rajasthan. under a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). The hybrid solar project’s generating power will be supplied to Tata Power, Mumbai Power Distribution. This PPA will be valid for 25 years in order to fulfill its Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO).

With the addition of 225 MW of hybrid power to Tata Power’s Mumbai’s customers, the revised power supply portfolio will rise to 38% non-carbon power. It will be nearly double the mandatory RPO obligation. According to the company, against the yearly requirement of nearly 5,200 MUs annually, the non-carbon supply will be approximately 2,000 MUs.

This is the first hybrid project developed by Tata Power consisting of recently commissioned 225MW of solar power at Noorsar and existing wind assets of 96MW which is expected to generate about 700 MUs of energy per year.

The project was awarded to TPGEL and the solar part of the project has been executed by Tata Power Solar Systems Limited, an EPC arm of Tata Power. The project was commissioned within the stipulated timeline on 1,200 acres of land at Noorsar in Rajasthan. The project has used 5,79,488 modules and 103 individual Wind energy generators of various ratings from the company’s existing wind assets. According to the TPGEL, despite the various challenges like rugged terrain caused by multiple high dunes, the harsh temperature of 50 degrees Celsius, and unusual rains, the project was delivered as per the stipulated timeline.

With the commissioning of this hybrid project, the total renewables capacity of Tata Power reaches 5,524 MW with an installed capacity of 3,859 MW and 1,665 MW under various stages of implementation.
