As solar-plus-storage grows nationwide, Hartek Power is well placed to deliver large renewable projects.
Hartek Power has secured a Rs 353.77 crore EPC contract for a large solar and battery storage project in Karnataka. As India pushes for round-the-clock clean power, could integrated solar-plus-storage projects like this become the new backbone of the country’s energy transition?
Hartek Power, part of the Hartek Group, has been awarded the EPC scope for a 280 MW AC / 410 MWp DC solar photovoltaic project combined with an 80 MW / 320 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) at Challakere in Karnataka.
The company’s responsibilities include design, engineering, supply, erection and commissioning of the project, along with one year of operations and maintenance. The total value of the signed and agreed scope stands at approximately Rs 353.77 crore.
This project comes at a crucial time, as India increasingly focuses on combining renewable energy generation with storage to ensure grid stability and a reliable power supply. Battery energy storage systems play a key role in managing the intermittent nature of solar power and enabling more consistent energy availability.

Commenting on the win, Simarpreet Singh, Executive Director and CEO, Hartek Group, said, “This project reflects the growing maturity of India’s renewable energy market, where solar generation and storage are coming together as an integrated solution. We are pleased to be working on this large-scale solar and battery storage project at Challakere. At Hartek, we have consistently invested in engineering capabilities and execution excellence to deliver complex projects of this scale. This win strengthens our position in the utility-scale solar segment and marks an important step forward in our journey into battery energy storage.”
Challakere is fast emerging as a renewable energy hub, and this project adds to Karnataka’s expanding clean energy capacity. For Hartek, the order highlights its ability to execute large, technically advanced projects across regions while supporting India’s broader clean energy and decarbonisation goals.
With hybrid solar and storage projects expected to grow rapidly nationwide, Hartek’s latest win positions it among EPC players ready to deliver next-generation renewable infrastructure at scale.
