NTPC Green commissions 150 MW solar capacity in Rajasthan

NTPC Green Energy Limited (NGEL), a subsidiary of NTPC Ltd, has announced the start of commercial operations for 150 MW of solar capacity from its 300 MW project in Rajasthan. This is another step forward in its efforts to expand its renewable energy business.

According to a regulatory filing, the commissioned capacity will become operational from April 18, 2026. The project is being developed by Project Sixteen Renewable Power Private Limited, a step-down subsidiary of ONGC NTPC Green Private Limited, the joint venture between NTPC Green Energy and Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC).

Capacity addition strengthens renewable portfolio

The addition of 150 MW is part of NGEL’s broader strategy to scale up its renewable energy capacity. Before this change, the company’s total installed capacity was 10,126.40 MW. The most recent commissioning brought the total capacity up to 10,276.40 MW, which strengthens its position in India’s clean energy sector.

This milestone comes shortly after the company crossed the symbolic 10 GW installed capacity mark, highlighting its continued growth trajectory.

Regulatory disclosure and project details

The update was disclosed under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, which mandates listed companies to report significant operational developments. The official communication was signed by Deepak C. S., Company Secretary and Compliance Officer of NGEL.

Joint venture driving renewable expansion

The project shows how NTPC and ONGC are working together more and more through their joint venture, ONGC NTPC Green Private Limited. The goal of the partnership is to speed up the growth of renewable energy projects all over India and help the country reach its clean energy goals.

Supporting India’s energy transition

This solar capacity in Rajasthan is part of India’s efforts to use more renewable energy and less conventional energy. These kinds of solar projects are very important for making sure that energy security lasts a long time and that power generation is sustainable.

With continued capacity additions and strategic collaborations, NTPC Green Energy Limited is steadily strengthening its renewable energy portfolio, aligning with national goals for a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.
