India’s Warehousing Sector Grows 15% in Q1 2025

Evren, Brookfield’s India-based renewables platform, has signed a 300 MW power purchase agreement (PPA) with state-run NTPC for firm and dispatchable renewable energy supply.

The project will involve setting up nearly 1 GW of hybrid capacity—combining solar, wind, and battery energy storage—to deliver reliable green power during peak hours, helping discoms meet both energy demand and regulatory obligations for renewables and storage.

Designed to supply 300 MW of firm renewable energy, the integrated setup will offer greater dispatch efficiency during high-demand periods, a key requirement as India ramps up its renewable mix.

“The FDRE tender is a significant milestone for us,” said Suman Kumar, CEO of Evren. “We’re investing proactively in quality resources, including land banks and interconnect approvals, to enable large-scale decarbonisation.”

Evren was launched by Brookfield in partnership with Axis Energy. The platform has a portfolio of over 11 GW, with 7 GW of mid- and late-stage wind and solar projects spread across India.

Smart Roads, Smarter India

India’s infrastructure boom is not only about laying more kilometres of highways – it’s about building them smarter, safer and more sustainably. From drones mapping fragile Himalayan slopes to 3D machine-controlled graders reducing human error, technology is steadily reshaping the way projects are planned and executed. Yet, the journey towards digitisation remains complex, demanding not just capital but also coordination, training and vision.Until recently, engineers largely depended on Survey of India toposheets and traditional survey methods like total stations or DGPS to prepare detai..
