The institute has delivered training in over 43 locations globally, including countries such as Bhutan, Ethiopia, and Liberia.

Its Green Energy Centres in Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu provide hands-on training in solar, wind, hydro systems, and emerging areas like green hydrogen. The Rohini centre, situated at the Cenpeid campus (Tata Power-DDL Training Centre), becomes TPSDI’s 12th hub in India, with eight additional centres planned for the year. This expansion is expected to further strengthen India’s green workforce and bolster national clean energy objectives.
