Tata Power Solar Systems Limited (TPSSL), a subsidiary of Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL), has successfully completed India’s largest Solar and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) project located in Rajnandgaon, Chhattisgarh.
This groundbreaking project consists of a 100 MW Solar PV Project coupled with a 120 MWh Utility Scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). TPSSL secured the project, valued at Rs 945 crore, from SECI in December 2021, and managed all aspects of engineering, construction, and commissioning.
Expected to generate approximately 243.53 million units of energy annually, the project will significantly reduce the carbon footprint by 4.87 million tonnes over 25 years, aligning with India’s renewable energy targets. Despite challenges such as adverse soil conditions and remote location, the project was completed on schedule. Bifacial Mono Crystalline technology was utilized for 239,685 modules.
TPSSL boasts a robust solar EPC portfolio, comprising over 12.8 GWp of ground-mount utility-scale installations, as well as more than 2 GW of rooftop and distributed ground-mounted systems. Additionally, the company has installed over one lakh solar water pumps. TPSSL has played a pivotal role in advancing solar rooftop installations, particularly in the commercial and industrial sectors, over the years.
