19 Aug 2025 CW Team

Clean energy solutions provider Gentari has partnered with UltraTech Cement Ltd, India’s largest cement and ready-mix-concrete company, to fully operationalise the country’s first on-site hybrid round-the-clock (RTC) renewable energy project.

The 7.5 MW facility integrates solar, wind, and battery energy storage within UltraTech’s Sewagram Cement Works in Gujarat, offering uninterrupted clean energy supply. The project sets a new benchmark in India’s clean energy transition, providing an industrial-scale alternative to conventional baseload power by prioritising reliability, flexibility, and resilience.

Sharad Pungalia, Country Head of Gentari India, said the project reflects the evolution of industrial energy demand. “This wasn’t built in isolation—it was co-created with UltraTech to deliver a solution that is not only sustainable, but operationally viable at scale,” he noted.

Gentari said the project is a key milestone in its India portfolio and a cornerstone of its strategy to scale firm renewable power across Asia-Pacific. By integrating bifacial solar modules with trackers, wind power, and storage in a co-located setup, Gentari is demonstrating how renewable energy systems can be designed for performance as well as production.
