The state-owned Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency (IREDA) unveiled collaboration with Indian Overseas Bank (IOB) to jointly fund renewable energy projects in India. The formal agreement, inked in the national capital, was attended by IREDA CMD Pradip Kumar Das and IOB MD and CEO Ajay Kumar Srivastava, according to an official statement.

The memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed between IREDA and Indian Overseas Bank marks the beginning of a partnership facilitating co-lending and loan syndication for a diverse range of renewable energy projects nationwide, the statement explained.

IREDA's CMD emphasised, "Through the consolidation of our strengths and resources, our goal is to provide robust financial support to renewable energy projects.

IREDA, operating under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, serves as a non-banking financial institution dedicated to promoting, developing, and extending financial assistance for projects related to new and renewable sources of energy, as well as energy efficiency and conservation.
