NTPC Green Energy Limited (NGEL), a step-down subsidiary of NTPC Limited through NTPC Renewable Energy Limited, has declared the commercial operation date for the first part, comprising 50 MW, of the 200 MW Dayapar Wind Energy Project Phase II in Gujarat. This commissioning brings NGEL's current commercial capacity at the group level to about 9,151.08 MW and increases the NTPC Green Energy Limited group's total installed capacity to about 9,201.08 MW.

The addition forms part of a broader expansion that lifted the company’s commercial capacity to 8,010 MW as of 31 December 2025. NGEL added 2,108 MW in the period, up from 5,902 MW as of 31 March 2025, reflecting accelerated commissioning and asset integration.

On a year-on-year basis, commercial capacity increased by 4,535 MW, including 2,624 MW contributed by the acquisition of Ayana Renewable Power Private Limited. The latest commissioning therefore reinforces the group’s efforts to integrate acquired portfolios and accelerate capacity utilisation.

The chief executive officer, Sarit Maheshwari, outlined that the company remains confident of achieving its target of adding around 5,200 MW year-on-year and that the group had targeted adding five GW of capacity this year. He noted that NTPC has already added around 2,000 MW and that capacity additions over the remaining two months are progressing as planned.

The company plans further additions including about 1,000 MW at Khavda, 200 MW at Bhadla and 250 MW at Kalasar, alongside roughly 300 MW of wind capacity from Gujarat plants. NTPC also expects to add around 500–550 MW from the Ayana portfolio, taking planned capacity additions to about 2,300–2,400 MW over the next two months.

The Dayapar commissioning underscores NTPC Green Energy Limited's strategy to scale renewable generation and integrate acquisitions to meet growth targets. Continued commissioning across solar and wind assets is expected to support operational scale-up and project delivery timelines.
