In FY24, Tata Power secured two projects worth Rs 23 billion through the Tariff-Based Competitive Bidding (TBCB) process. With aspirations of achieving 70% of its capacity from non-fossil-based fuels by 2030, Tata Power currently operates 4.5 GW of renewable capacity, with another 5.5 GW under implementation, and possesses a transmission lines portfolio exceeding 6,277 circuit kilometres, including 1,651 circuit kilometres in the pipeline as of March 31, 2024.
