· The 190.5 MW project has been developed under SJVN FDRE Tranche-1 and is a part of the bigger 460 MW FDRE project
· Project
to strengthen grid reliability through 115 MWHr advanced Battery Energy Storage
System (BESS)
Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL), one of
India's leading renewable energy companies and a subsidiary of The Tata Power
Company Limited (Tata Power), has commissioned its 190.5
MW Solar FDRE project at Kalasar, Bikaner, Rajasthan which is under
the contractual capacity of 460 MW Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy
(FDRE) Project.
The 190.5 MW
project has been developed under SJVN FDRE Tranche-1. The project will supply
energy to HPPC, MSEDCL and NPCL discoms.
The project
marks another significant milestone in India's clean energy journey by
integrating large-scale solar generation with advanced energy storage and grid
support technologies to deliver reliable, dispatchable renewable power.
The project
demonstrates TPREL's engineering excellence and execution capabilities, having
overcome several complex challenges including compressed project timelines,
global supply chain disruptions impacting the availability of transmission line
materials, module mounting structures and other critical equipment. It has
successfully adopted several new technologies such as BESS, Harmonic Filter
Bank and Static Var Generator systems.
Among the
project's notable execution milestones was the completion of the switchyard
within just three months and the Harmonic Filter Bank within one month,
reflecting TPREL's focus on speed, quality and execution excellence.
With this
project, TPREL's total renewable utility capacity has reached 12.4 GW. Of this,
around 6.9 GW is operational, including 5.6 GW of solar and 1.3 GW of wind
capacity, while close to 5.5 GW is under various stages of implementation, are
expected to be commissioned in phases over the next 24 months.
The company
remains committed to developing innovative clean energy solutions that
contribute to India's target of achieving 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by
2030 and Tata Power's vision of a sustainable energy future.
