CleanMax, Nuvoco Partner on 46.4 MW Hybrid Project

CleanMax Enviro Energy Solutions Limited, a leading renewable energy solutions provider for India’s commercial and industrial (C&I) sector, has partnered with Nuvoco Vistas Corp. Ltd. to accelerate renewable energy adoption in Rajasthan. The partnership involves a 46.4 MW wind-solar hybrid project aimed at supplying clean power to support Nuvoco’s operations.

The project, located in Bhikamkhore, Rajasthan, comprises 20 MW of wind and 26.4 MWp of solar capacity along with a 2-MWh Battery Energy Storage System (“BESS”), developed under a group captive structure designed for long-term clean energy procurement.

Power generated from the project will be supplied to Nuvoco through the State Transmission Utility (“STU”) Open Access network. The project adds to CleanMax’s growing RE footprint in Rajasthan, one of its key markets for large-scale development catering to C&I clients, where the company has an operational portfolio of over 525 MW across solar, wind and hybrid assets.

The initiative builds on Nuvoco’s ongoing efforts to reduce the carbon intensity of its manufacturing operations through RE, Waste Heat Recovery Systems (“WHRS”), energy-efficiency measures and increased use of alternative fuels.

The project further advances Nuvoco’s DIRE (“Digitalisation, Innovation and Renewables”) agenda, which provides a structured pathway to drive climate action, renewable energy transition, water stewardship, circularity and biodiversity conservation across its manufacturing ecosystem, while enabling more resilient, resource-efficient and lower-carbon operations.

Once operational, the hybrid project is expected to generate ~100 million units (“MU”) of renewable electricity annually. It is expected to avoid ~62,023 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually under Scope 2 and ~63,463 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually under Scope 1. The project will support Nuvoco’s long-term energy and sustainability objectives.
