NTPC Limited has announced the commercial operation declaration of additional renewable energy capacity through its subsidiary Ayana Renewable Power Four Private Limited in Gujarat. The development represents continued progress in the company's renewable energy expansion strategy, with both solar and wind components becoming operational.

New Capacity Additions

Ayana Renewable Power Four Private Limited, a step-down subsidiary of NTPC's joint venture ONGC NTPC Green Private Limited, has declared commercial operation of two renewable energy components effective from 00:00 hours of April 2, 2026.

The wind capacity is part of a larger hybrid project with total installed capacity of 92.4 MW wind and 37.5 MW solar components, demonstrating the integrated approach to renewable energy development.

Updated Capacity Position

Following these additions, NTPC's capacity metrics have been updated across different organizational levels. The parent company NTPC group now maintains a total installed capacity of 89,145 MW with commercial capacity reaching 88,065 MW.

Corporate Structure and Compliance

The disclosure was made under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. NTPC Green Energy Limited, as the subsidiary of NTPC Limited, filed the initial disclosure on March 31, 2026, which was subsequently communicated by the parent company on April 1, 2026.

The projects are located in Gujarat and represent part of NTPC's broader renewable energy portfolio expansion through its subsidiary network. Ayana Renewable Power Four Private Limited operates as a step-down subsidiary of the joint venture ONGC NTPC Green Private Limited, illustrating the multi-layered corporate structure supporting NTPC's renewable energy initiatives.

Project Timeline and Operations

Both the solar and wind components achieved commercial operation status simultaneously, with operations commencing from April 2, 2026. The solar component represents progressive commissioning of the larger 150 MW solar project, while the wind component is part of the phased development of the hybrid renewable energy facility in Gujarat.

NTPC Limited's subsidiary NTPC Green Energy Limited (NGEL) has successfully commissioned 168.02 MW of additional solar capacity through two renewable energy projects in Gujarat, marking continued progress in the company's green energy expansion. The commercial operation declarations were made on March 31, under SEBI Regulation 30 disclosure requirements.

Project Details and Latest Commissioning

The latest capacity additions comprise two distinct phases of solar photovoltaic projects operated by NTPC Renewable Energy Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of NGEL:

The Khavda-I project represents the completion of the twelfth and final phase of the 1,255 MW solar installation, while the Khavda-II project marks the sixth phase of capacity addition from the larger 1,200 MW solar development, both located in Gujarat.

Enhanced Capacity Metrics

The commissioning of these projects has resulted in substantial capacity increases across the NTPC group structure:

Previous Capacity Additions

Earlier in March, NGEL had commissioned 180 MW of solar capacity through the Bhadla Solar PV Project in Rajasthan (75 MW) and an earlier phase of the Khavda-II project in Gujarat (105 MW), demonstrating consistent execution of renewable energy projects across multiple states.

Regulatory Compliance and Documentation

The commercial operation declarations were made in compliance with SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, specifically under Regulation 30. The disclosures were signed by Company Secretary and Compliance Officer Ritu Arora for NTPC Limited and Deepak C S for NTPC Green Energy Limited.

Both projects achieved commercial operation status with proper certification from relevant authorities, ensuring full regulatory compliance for the capacity additions. The phased approach to project commissioning demonstrates systematic execution of large-scale renewable energy developments.

Corporate Structure and Strategic Progress

NTPC Green Energy Limited operates as a subsidiary of NTPC Limited, with NTPC Renewable Energy Limited functioning as a step-down subsidiary through NGEL. This corporate structure enables focused development and operation of renewable energy projects while maintaining integration with the broader NTPC group operations.

The successful commissioning of these solar projects reinforces the group's commitment to expanding renewable energy capacity and contributes to India's clean energy objectives through utility-scale solar installations across Gujarat and Rajasthan.
