How Jindal Aluminium Limited Achieved 100% Renewable Energy for its Bengaluru and Dabaspet Units! Jindal Aluminium Limited has set a benchmark in sustainability, making its Bengaluru and Dabaspet units entirely energy-independent with 100% renewable energy! Here’s how they did it: As Karnataka’s first Private Independent Power Producer (IPP) to establish a wind energy facility in 1997, Jindal Aluminium has continued to expand its green energy footprint. Today, the company’s wind power facilities generate 25.6 MW in Karnataka and 25.2 MW in Andhra Pradesh, ensuring reliable, clean energy across two states. The company’s commitment extends beyond wind power. Jindal Aluminium has also heavily invested in solar energy, beginning with a 10 MW project in Chitradurga and later adding a 20 MW project in Davanagere. With a total solar capacity of 30 MW, Jindal Aluminium is proactively working to reduce its carbon footprint and contribute to a cleaner environment. These renewable energy investments reflect Jindal Aluminium’s dedication to sustainability, positioning the company as a leader in eco-friendly practices within the industry. By achieving energy independence through renewable resources, Jindal Aluminium Limited is paving the way for a greener future! #JindalAluminium #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #GreenInitiative #EnergyIndependence #CarbonNeutral

Maharashtra Secures Rs 475 Billion in MoUs with Leading Energy Companies to Accelerate Renewable Energy Goals The Maharashtra government is taking significant strides toward its renewable energy goals by securing agreements with five major companies through four Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs), totaling Rs 475 billion.

One of the key partnerships is with RECPDCL, focusing on developing renewable energy projects that will benefit both the state and the company. An initial investment of Rs 30 billion has been earmarked for a 500 […] Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/d9F9t46W #solarenergy #alternativeenergy #solarpv #pvsolar #photovoltaic #cleanenergy #cleantech #climatechange #energygoals #india #maharashtra #mou #recpdcl #renewableenergy

TotalEnergies and Adani Green Energy Ltd. (AGEL) have entered into an equal joint venture agreement to develop a 1,150 MWac (1,575 MWp) solar portfolio in Khavda, Gujarat. AGEL, which already operates over 11 GW of solar and wind capacity in India, will contribute assets to the joint venture, while TotalEnergies will invest $444 million in equity to support the development of the solar portfolio. The electricity generated by these solar projects will be sold through Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) with the federal agency Solar Energy Corporation of India Limited (SECI) and through sales on the wholesale market. “This new transaction will allow TotalEnergies to capitalise on the ongoing liberalisation of the Indian electricity market,” TotalEnergies said in a statement today. “This will strengthen TotalEnergies’ strategic alliance with AGEL, allowing it to support the company in becoming a global renewable leader as it targets 50 GW of renewable power capacity by 2030.” The Khavda region, where this portfolio will be developed, is home to what is set to become the world’s largest renewable energy plant. AGEL, which is 19.75% owned by TotalEnergies, is developing the site that spans over 538 km², equivalent to five times the size of Paris. The site will eventually have a combined solar and wind capacity of 30 GW, with 2 GW already operational. Once fully completed, Khavda will generate enough electricity to power 16 million homes in India. The transaction’s signing and completion are subject to AGEL’s shareholder approval and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including obtaining necessary regulatory approvals. #cleanenergy

India is stepping up its renewable energy game with innovative Round-The-Clock (RTC) and Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy (FDRE) auctions, moving beyond traditional plain vanilla auctions. With a goal to reach 500 GW of renewable capacity by 2030, and net-zero emissions by 2070, this strategic shift is crucial. Key Highlights: RTC Auctions: Ensure 90% power availability, thus reduce dependence on coal. The Solar Energy Corporation of India Limited and REMC Ltd (REMCL) have successfully conducted these auctions. Major players securing capacities include ACME Group, NTPC Limited, ReNew, TATA Power, O2 Power, Torrent Power, and Sprng Energy, among others. FDRE Auctions: Guarantee firm and dispatchable renewable energy, including Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), with high-capacity utilization. Conducted by Solar Energy Corporation of India Limited, NTPC Limited, NHPC Limited, and SJVN LIMITED, winners encompass Juniper Green Energy , Hero Future Energies, ACME Group, ReNew, JSW Energy Ltd, BluPine Energy , SolarCraft, BrightNight, ABC Cleantech, Serentica Renewables, and O2 Power, among others. FDRE auctions are witnessing rapid growth, with a 193% increase in capacity allocation in just one year, a testament to their profitability and reliability. Hybrid Auctions: Combine solar and wind, stabilizing power generation. As of June 2024, hybrid auctions account for 25% of total capacity awarded through auctions in India. As India intensifies its auction strategies, these auctions are set to dominate, ensuring a sustainable and stable energy future.
