Tata Power Renewable Energy Ltd (TPREL), a subsidiary of The Tata Power Co. Ltd (Tata Power), has successfully commissioned its 100 MW group captive solar project at Vellalankottai and Nalandhula villages in Kayathar, Tamil Nadu.
The project will supply clean power to TP Solar (40.625 MW), Tata Power’s solar cell and module manufacturing arm; Tata Electronics(53.125 MW), an electronics manufacturing company focused on semiconductors, precision engineering and advanced electronics; and Tata Realty Infrastructure Ltd (6.25 MW), Tata Group’s real estate and infrastructure development arm, supporting the decarbonization of their operations.
With this commissioning, TPREL’s utility-scale renewable energy portfolio has grown to 12.3 GW, including 7 GW of operational capacity comprising 5.7 GW of solar and 1.3 GW of wind. The remaining 5.3 GW is under various stages of development, comprising 2.2 GW of solar and 3.1 GW of wind capacity, with projects scheduled for phased commissioning over the next 6 to 24 months.
The project is expected to generate 240.63 million units (MUs) of clean electricity annually and help offset around 1.5 lakh tonnes of CO₂ emissions per annum.
TPREL said the project uses flexible terrain compatible (FTC) single-axis tracker technology and 261,660 monocrystalline PERC bifacial solar modules to maximize energy generation and improve operational efficiency across varying terrain conditions.
