“The first phase of the ‘300 MW Solar Power Project’ of the company, with a capacity of 52.83 MW, has been successfully commissioned and declared commercially operational at Barsingsar, Distt. Bikaner, Rajasthan. The Commissioning Certificate for the same has been received from Rajasthan Renewable Energy Corporation Ltd. on August 26, 2025,” the company stated in a regulatory filing.
As NLC India accelerates its green energy transition, the company is making strategic investments in solar, wind, hybrid power projects, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and green hydrogen initiatives. The company has set a target of achieving 10 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030.
In July 2025, the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs approved a special exemption allowing NLC India to invest INR 7,000 crore in its subsidiary NLC India Renewables (NIRL) without prior approval, boosting its push toward a 32 GW green energy portfolio by 2047.
At present, NLCIL operates seven renewable energy assets with a total installed capacity of 2 GW, which are either operational or close to commercial operation. These assets will be transferred to NIRL pursuant to this Cabinet approval. NIRL, envisioned as the flagship platform for NLCIL’s green energy initiatives, is actively exploring fresh opportunities across the renewable energy sector, including participation in competitive bidding for new projects.
