JSW Energy Adds 261 MW of Renewables in June Quarter

JSW Energy on Monday announced the successful commissioning of 261 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy capacity, comprising 189 MW of solar and 72 MW of wind projects. With this addition, the company’s total installed capacity has reached 12,760 MW.

During the April–June quarter, the company added a total of 1.9 gigawatts (GW) of capacity, spanning both organic and inorganic expansions. The share of renewables in JSW Energy’s total installed portfolio has now risen to 56 per cent, including 3,554 MW of wind, 2,157 MW of solar, and 1,391 MW of hydro capacity.

This capacity augmentation comes at an opportune time, enabling the company to maximise generation during the peak renewable output season and contribute significantly to its green energy portfolio.

JSW Energy now has a locked-in generation portfolio of 29.9 GW—12.8 GW operational, 12.5 GW under construction across thermal, wind, solar and hydro, and a pipeline of 4.6 GW. Additionally, the company has secured 29.3 gigawatt hours (GWh) of energy storage capacity, including 26.4 GWh from hydro pumped storage projects and 2.9 GWh from battery energy storage systems.

The company aims to scale up its generation capacity to 30 GW and energy storage capacity to 40 GWh by financial year 2030. JSW Energy has also reaffirmed its commitment to becoming carbon neutral by 2050.
