WattPower Secures 1 GW Solar Inverter Order from ReNew

WattPower has secured an order from ReNew to supply 1 gigawatt (GW) of utility-scale solar inverters, with deliveries scheduled for FY28. The agreement covers two inverter platforms intended for large solar power projects operating under varying grid conditions.

The order includes WattPower’s 330KTL string inverters and its next-generation WP-506KTL grid-forming inverters. The company said the supplies would be made during the next financial year and would cover both models under the agreement.

The WP-330KTL is designed for established utility-scale solar applications, while the WP-506KTL incorporates grid-forming capabilities. These capabilities are intended to help solar generation systems respond to changing operating conditions as renewable energy capacity expands.

Grid stability has become increasingly important as power systems accommodate a larger share of renewable generation. Grid-forming technology can support the operation of solar installations in such environments by helping systems manage changes in grid conditions and maintain more consistent performance.

Divya Prakash Choraria, managing director of WattPower, said the agreement would extend the company’s partnership with ReNew and reflected the confidence built between the two companies. He added that the 330KTL and WP-506KTL platforms would support ReNew’s upcoming projects and the changing requirements of the power grid.

The agreement highlights continuing demand for inverter technologies supporting large-scale solar deployment. It also brings together conventional string inverter applications and newer grid-forming technology within a single supply arrangement for utility-scale projects.
