GACL Partners With CleanMax For 75.90 MW Wind And 84.34 MW Solar Project

Gujarat Alkalies and Chemicals has partnered with CleanMax Enviro Energy Solutions to source hybrid renewable energy for its manufacturing operations in Gujarat, with the project comprising 75.90 Megawatt (MW) of wind capacity and 84.34 Megawatt (MW) of solar capacity. The hybrid facilities will supply power to the company's Dahej and Vadodara units under a group captive structure, with the entire output contracted to the customer. The arrangement is presented as a measure to advance industrial decarbonisation while maintaining operational reliability.

The project is being developed across four renewable energy sites in Gujarat: Kalikanagar, Aji Dahisarda, Rajula and Ghuntu. Together, it is expected to generate 369 million (mn) units of clean power annually and to reduce emissions by 264,204 tonnes (t) per year, an environmental benefit equivalent to planting nearly 15.27 million (mn) trees annually. These estimates are provided by the developers and form part of the project rationale.

Execution will occur in two phases, with phase one comprising 16.50 MW of wind and 21.701 MWp of solar and phase two comprising 59.40 MW of wind and 62.64 MWp of solar, all to be commissioned in accordance with contractual timelines agreed between the parties. Once operational, the hybrid renewable supply will be allocated to GACL's manufacturing units to support continuous operations and emission reduction targets. The providers indicate that the project represents a significant group captive deal for the renewable developer.

GACL is described as a leading domestic chlor-alkali manufacturer, operating multiple complexes in Vadodara and Dahej and offering more than 35 products used across industries. The company has expanded capacity from an initial 37,425 tonnes per annum to 852,400 tonnes per annum, reflecting long-term growth and vertical integration in manufacturing. Integration of renewables is framed as central to reducing energy intensity while improving cost competitiveness through price visibility and long-term savings.

CleanMax reports 844 MW of operational capacity in Gujarat and a contracted portfolio of 5.7 GW, serving 588 customers across sectors. The developer frames the collaboration as part of its net-zero services.
