With the commissioning of the Tata Steel project, TPREL’s total renewable utility capacity has reached 12.3 GW
Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL) has commissioned a 72.5 MW captive solar power project at Kalasar in Bikaner, Rajasthan, developed for Tata Steel Limited. The project is aimed at supporting Tata Steel’s decarbonisation efforts while adding to India’s renewable energy capacity.
The project is expected to generate around 166 million units (MUs) of green energy annually and offset approximately 1,18,856 tonnes of carbon emissions every year. It comprises 1,71,360 solar modules manufactured by TP Solar Limited.
The project integrates large-scale solar generation with technology-driven solutions and highlights TPREL’s engineering and execution capabilities in developing renewable energy assets for industrial customers. The company serves sectors including data centres, communications, IT, petrochemicals, steel, automobiles, FMCG and biotechnology.
With the commissioning of the Tata Steel project, TPREL’s total renewable utility capacity has reached 12.3 GW. Of this, around 7 GW is operational, comprising 5.7 GW of solar and 1.3 GW of wind capacity. Another 5.3 GW is currently under various stages of implementation, including 2.2 GW of solar and 3.1 GW of wind projects, which are expected to be commissioned in phases over the next 6–24 months.
The project further strengthens TPREL’s contribution towards India’s target of achieving 500 GW of non-fossil fuel-based capacity by 2030 and Tata Power’s broader vision of building a sustainable energy future.
