The entire power generated will be supplied to the State of Rajasthan, enhancing the state’s renewable energy portfolio and supporting India’s clean energy goals. NLCIL plans to commission the remaining capacity by December 2025, achieving the full 300 MW within schedule.

With this addition, NLCIL’s total installed renewable energy capacity has risen to 1,588.83 MW.
