Serentica to Scale Renewable Capacity to 7.5 GW by 2027

12 Sep 2025 CW Team

Green energy company Serentica Renewables plans to commission an additional 6.5 GW of renewable capacity by December 2027, a top company official has said.

With the commissioning of these projects, Serentica’s operational capacity will increase to 7.5 GW from the current 1 GW, Chief Executive Officer Akshay Hiranandani said.

The 7.5 GW target by the end of 2027 will include 3 GW of projects awarded by government-owned Renewable Energy Implementation Agencies (REIAs). As a result, government utilities will account for 40 per cent of Serentica’s total commissioned portfolio.

In addition, Serentica has signed three power purchase agreements (PPAs) and one Letter of Award (LoA) totalling 650 MW with major government utilities under the Framework for Development of Renewable Energy (FDRE) in the first five months of the current financial year.

“These wins at auctions of renewable energy projects by government-owned agencies demonstrate our ability to deliver complex, large-scale renewable projects aligned with India’s national priorities at affordable costs,” Hiranandani said. He added that the company has inked agreements with NTPC for a 200 MW solar-wind-storage peak power project and with SECI for 100 MW under the FDRE-IV load-following tender.

With NHPC, an agreement has been signed for a 150 MW hybrid peak power project, while a LoA has been received from SJVN for a 200 MW time-block-based supply between April and August this year.

These projects will be located in states such as Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh.

Established in 2022, Serentica Renewables is a leading renewable independent power producer focused on decarbonising hard-to-abate industries by providing firm, dispatchable renewable energy solutions.

By 2030, the company aims for 17 GW of operational capacity, combining renewable energy with large-scale storage solutions, including pumped storage projects (PSPs) and battery energy storage systems (BESS).

The company targets supplying over 50 billion units of clean power annually by 2030, offsetting nearly 47 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions
