With this commissioning, TPREL's utility portfolio has increased to 12.3 GW and has surpassed the 7 GW operational capacity milestone, the company stated.
The project will supply clean power to TP Solar (40.625 MW), Tata Power's solar manufacturing arm producing high-efficiency solar cells and modules; Tata Electronics (53.125 MW), an electronics manufacturing company focused on semiconductors, precision engineering and advanced electronics; and Tata Realty and Infrastructure (6.25 MW), Tata Group's real estate and infrastructure development company.
The project is designed to generate 240.63 million units (MUs) of clean electricity annually and is expected to offset approximately 1.5 lakh tonnes of CO2 emissions per annum.
One of the key highlights of the project is the first-of-its-kind deployment of the Flexible Terrain Compatible (FTC) Single Axis Tracker technology in India for a Tata project. Equipped with 2,61,660 Mono PERC bifacial solar modules, the project is engineered to maximise energy generation while improving operational efficiency across varying terrain conditions, the company stated.
It further added that the power generated will be transmitted through the Kayathar 400 kV Grid Substation (GSS), ensuring reliable evacuation and efficient delivery of renewable energy to the beneficiary companies.
TPREL’s 7 GW operational capacity comprises more than 5.7 GW of solar and 1.3 GW of wind energy assets. Further strengthening its growth trajectory, TPREL has an additional 5.3 GW under various stages of development, including 2.2 GW of solar and 3.1 GW of wind projects, which are slated for phased commissioning over the next 6 to 24 months, the company stated.
