This significant move aligns with the company’s commitment to accelerating the renewable energy transition and achieving 100% green energy generation by 2045.
This investment is part of the company’s larger Rs 1.46 trillion capex strategy for FY25-FY30, of which 60% will be directed toward renewable energy projects. Speaking about the company’s future, Praveer Sinha, CEO and MD of Tata Power, shared their vision of achieving 23 GW renewable capacity by FY30, up from 6.7 GW in FY24.

The company aims to achieve 70% green energy generation by 2030. In FY25 alone, Tata Power plans to allocate Rs 21,000 crore in capex, marking a sharp 72% increase from FY24’s Rs 12,184 crore. This proactive approach underscores its dedication to supporting India’s ambitious goal of 500 GW renewable capacity by 2030, a target that requires an additional 300 GW to be added.

Revolutionizing Solar Energy with a State-of-the-Art Facility
At the heart of Tata Power’s green energy push is its new solar module and cell manufacturing facility in Gangaikondan, Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu.
