The MoUs encompass a range of projects, including solar and wind hybrid projects, round-the-clock projects, FDRE, floating solar plants, ultra-mega renewable energy parks, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), pumped storage, hydropower, green ammonia and green hydrogen projects, as well as solar cell and module manufacturing.
