Reliance Power Subsidiary Wins India's Largest Solar and Battery Storage Project

Reliance Power has recently made headlines with its subsidiary, Reliance NU Suntech Private Limited, securing a significant contract from the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI). The contract involves developing a 930 MW solar power project along with a 465 MW/1,860 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). This marks India's largest solar and battery storage project, showcasing a major leap in renewable energy infrastructure.

This project is notable for being the second-largest deployment of grid storage batteries at a single site in Asia, after China.

The project will provide four hours of peak power supply daily, offering much-needed relief to DISCOMs that often purchase power at high rates during peak hours. Reliance NU Suntech will develop the project on a build-own-operate basis, and SECI will enter into a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with them.

Besides this, Reliance NU Suntech has been involved in several notable projects recently. Sasan Power Ltd is one of Reliance Power's flagship projects, featuring the world's largest integrated coal-based power plant with a capacity of 3,960 MW. 

Reliance NU Suntech has been actively participating in various renewable energy projects, including solar and wind energy projects across India. The Anil Ambani promoted company has secured significant allocations in Inter State Transmission System (ISTS) -connected solar power projects, contributing to the national grid's stability and sustainability.

These projects underscore Reliance NU Suntech's commitment to expanding India's renewable energy infrastructure and promoting sustainable energy solutions.
