JSW Energy Signs 700 MW Solar PPA with NTPC

JSW Renew Energy Thirteen Limited, a subsidiary of JSW Energy Limited, has signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with NTPC Limited for a solar capacity of 700 megawatts (MW). This project is a major milestone in JSW Energy’s renewable energy expansion.

The solar project will be connected through Inter-State Transmission System (ISTS) and State Transmission Utility (STU) networks. It will supply power at a tariff of Rs2.59 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for the next 25 years, ensuring long-term sustainability and cost-effectiveness. The project is slated for commissioning by June 2026.

JSW Energy currently has a solar pipeline capacity of 3.2 gigawatts (GW), with 2.0 GW already secured through PPAs. This agreement with NTPC highlights the company's strategic move toward enhancing its renewable energy footprint, contributing to India’s broader clean energy transition.

JSW Energy’s total generation capacity stands at 18.2 GW, including 7.7 GW of operational capacity and 2.1 GW of ongoing projects across thermal, wind, and hydro segments. Additionally, the company is working on a robust renewable energy pipeline of 8.3 GW.

To support its clean energy goals, JSW Energy is also developing 16.2 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of energy storage through battery energy storage systems and hydro-pumped storage projects. The company aims to reach a total generation capacity of 20 GW and 40 GWh of energy storage by 2030, with the long-term target of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050.

Founded in 2000 with its first thermal power plant in Karnataka, JSW Energy has grown its capacity to 7,726 MW, comprising thermal, wind, hydro, and solar projects. The company is part of the USD 24 billion JSW Group, which operates across sectors like steel, cement, infrastructure, and sports, playing a key role in India’s energy evolution.

Creativity is for Humans, Productivity is for Robots!

On most construction sites, the rhythm of progress is measured by the clang of steel, the hum of machinery and the sweat of thousands. But increasingly, new sounds are entering the mix: the quiet efficiency of algorithms, the hum of drones overhead, and the precision of robotic arms at work. Behind the concrete and cables, an invisible force is taking hold: data. It is turning blueprints into living simulations, managing fleets of machines, and helping engineers make decisions before a single brick is laid. This is not the construction of tomorrow; it is the architecture of today – built on ..
