NTPC Limited has increased its group's total installed capacity to 90,954 MW and commercial capacity to 89,874 MW following the declaration of commercial operation of the Vanki Wind Energy Project. The first part capacity of 50.4 MW, located in Nakhatrana, Kutch, Gujarat, was commissioned by NTPC Renewable Energy Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of NTPC Green Energy Limited, effective July 8, 2026. This development strengthens the group's renewable energy footprint.

NTPC Green Energy Limited (NGEL) disclosed the commercial operation pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The filing was signed by Deepak Charuvil Sankunni, Company Secretary & Compliance Officer of NGEL. With this addition, the commercial capacity of the NTPC Green Energy Limited group stands at 10,671.40 MW and will increase to 10,721.80 MW.

Project Details

The following table outlines the commissioning details for the Vanki Wind Energy Project:

Separately, NTPC Limited had previously commissioned the Bhilai Floating Solar Power Station, developed by joint venture NTPC-SAIL Power Company Limited (NSPCL). The 15 MW project was fully commissioned on June 24, 2026, with the final 5 MW module becoming operational. Additionally, the final 41.6 MW unit of the 176 MW Solar PV Project at Ramagundam, Telangana, was declared on commercial operation on June 30, 2026.

NTPC has begun the process for developing large Pressurised Water Reactor (PWR)-based nuclear power capacity, according to newspaper reports. The state-owned power major has announced plans to independently build 30 GW of this capacity, signalling a major push into the nuclear energy segment.

Nuclear Power Expansion Initiative

The development marks a notable step in NTPC's broader energy strategy, with the company moving forward on PWR-based nuclear power — a technology widely used in large-scale nuclear power generation globally. The initiation of this process underscores the company's intent to diversify its power generation portfolio beyond conventional thermal and renewable sources.

Key Highlights

• NTPC has formally begun the process for large PWR-based nuclear power capacity development.
• The company has announced plans to build 30 GW of PWR-based nuclear capacity independently.
• The initiative is reported by newspaper sources, reflecting the company's stated strategic direction in nuclear energy.

The move to independently pursue 30 GW of PWR-based nuclear capacity represents one of the more ambitious nuclear power announcements by a domestic utility. As NTPC progresses through the initial process stages, the development is being closely watched given the scale of the proposed capacity addition.
