“Post-acquisition in January 26, Tidong Unit-I has been commissioned in a record turnaround time, underscoring the company's strong execution capabilities and ability to seamlessly integrate acquired assets. This positions us well to capitalise on the ongoing hydro season. Further, the balance two units of Tidong Hydro Plant are expected to be commissioned by June 2026,” stated the company.
The share of renewables in the overall capacity stands at 59 percent constituting wind capacities and solar capacities (including hybrid component) at 3,924 MW and 2,440 MW respectively, and hydro capacity at 1,681 MW.
JSW Energy has a total locked-in generation capacity of 32.1 GW, comprising 13.7 GW operational and 13.8 GW under construction across thermal, hydro, and renewables, with a pipeline of 4.6 GW.
The company plans to add about 3 GW of renewable capacity in FY27 and expects to incur a total capex of about INR 20,000 crore in FY27. The company also has 29.6 GWh of locked-in energy storage capacity, comprising pumped hydro storage of 26.4 GWh and battery energy storage systems of 3.2 GWh. The company aims to reach 30 GW of generation capacity and 40 GWh of energy storage capacity by 2030, and to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
