Tata Power Commissions 190.5MW Solar Plant in Rajasthan
Tata Power Renewable Energy (TPREL), a subsidiary of Tata Power, has commissioned a 190.5MW solar plant as part of the first tranche of its larger 460MW firm and dispatchable renewable energy project in Kalasar, Rajasthan. The facility includes an advanced battery storage system to enhance grid reliability and supply electricity to distribution companies such as Haryana Power Purchase Centre, Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company, and Noida Power Company. This commissioning increases TPREL's total utility-scale renewable capacity to 12.4GW, with approximately 6.9GW currently operational—comprising 5.6GW of solar and 1.3GW of wind—and an additional 5.5GW under development expected to come online in the next two years. The project aligns with India's goal of achieving 500GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030. Tata Power, a vertically integrated energy company within the Tata Group, has over 26GW of total power generation capacity, including more than 17.7GW from clean sources and around 8.8GW from thermal plants.
