Mishra added that MEIL remains committed to developing a balanced and sustainable energy portfolio, spanning thermal, hydro, and renewable power, to enhance national energy security and ensure reliable power supply for India’s long-term growth.

With over 5.2 GW of generation assets currently in its portfolio, the acquisition further strengthens MEIL’s position across the energy value chain, reinforcing its strategy to build a resilient and diversified portfolio capable of delivering reliable and scalable services.

MEIL said it would ensure the seamless integration of TAQA Neyveli into its existing operations, prioritising operational excellence and disciplined asset management to deliver long-term value to stakeholders.

The company noted that the acquisition highlights its strategic transition from a diversified EPC conglomerate into an integrated developer, owner, and operator of core infrastructure assets.
