Renewable energy company Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL), a subsidiary of Tata Power Company Limited (Tata Power), has commissioned its 100 MW Group Captive Solar Project (TNGC-2) at Vellalankottai and Nalandhula villages in Kayathar, Tamil Nadu.
With this commissioning, TPREL’s utility portfolio has grown to 12.3 GW and surpassed 7 GW in operational capacity. Sharing details of the latest project commissioning, Tata Power said in a press release that the project will supply clean power to various projects.
These projects include TP Solar (40.625 MW), Tata Power’s solar manufacturing arm, which produces high-efficiency solar cells and modules. The project also includes Tata Electronics (53.125 MW), its electronics manufacturing arm focused on semiconductors, and Tata Group’s real estate and infrastructure development company, Tata Realty Infrastructure Limited (6.25 MW).
Previously, Tata Power has commissioned its 4.3 GW cell and module manufacturing facility in Tirunelveli. The company currently describes the facility as a 4.3 GW cell and module manufacturing plant and identifies it as its major manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu.
It has also commissioned a 41 MW captive solar project at Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, to supply power to TP Solar’s 4.3 GW manufacturing facility in Tirunelveli. 
One of the key highlights of the project is the first-of-its-kind deployment of Flexible Terrain-Compatible (FTC) Single-Axis Tracker technology in India for a Tata project. Equipped with 2,61,660 Mono PERC bifacial solar modules, the project is engineered to maximise energy generation while improving operational efficiency across varying terrain conditions.
The company’s 7 GW operational capacity comprises more than 5.7 GW of solar and 1.3 GW of wind energy assets. TPREL also has an additional 5.3 GW under various stages of development, including 2.2 GW of solar and 3.1 GW of wind projects, which are slated for phased commissioning over the next 6 to 24 months.
The power generated will be transmitted through the Kayathar 400 kV Grid Substation (GSS), ensuring reliable power evacuation and efficient delivery of renewable energy to the beneficiary companies.
Alongside its extensive portfolio of renewable solutions, Tata Power has a solar cell and module manufacturing plant in Bengaluru, comprising 530 MW of solar cell capacity and 682 MW of module capacity. It also has a 4.3 GW cell and module manufacturing plant in Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu.
As of date, TPREL’s total renewable utility capacity is 12.3 GW (PPA capacity is 9.7 GW), including 5.3 GW of projects under various stages of implementation, while its operational capacity is 7 GW, comprising 5.7 GW of solar and 1.3 GW of wind.
Presently, the company’s solar EPC portfolio comprises more than 16.7 GWp of ground-mounted utility-scale projects and more than 5 GWp of rooftop and distributed ground-mounted projects. TPREL aims to provide energy access to millions of people across the country through its integrated green energy solutions.
