NTPC Green Energy Ltd. makes renewable energy. They say they will start using 165 megawatts (MW) of capacity at their 1,200 MW Khavda-II solar PV project in Gujarat. This is another important step the company is taking to add more clean energy sources and boost its solar capacity.
The new 165 MW capacity, which went into effect for business on February 20, 2026, at 00:00 hours, is the second phase of the Khavda-II solar power project developed by NTPC Renewable Energy Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of NTPC Green Energy.
With this addition, the total installed capacity of the NTPC Green Energy group has risen to 8,992.68 MW, reinforcing the company’s position as one of India’s leading renewable energy developers. The first part of the Khavda-II solar power project, totalling 210 MW, was commissioned and declared operational in January 2026.
Boosting Solar Power Capacity in Gujarat
The Khavda-II solar power project is in Gujarat and is part of NTPC Green Energy’s larger plan to increase the amount of solar power that can be used by utilities. The company is following a plan to gradually increase its renewable energy footprint, as shown by the ongoing commissioning of phased capacities at the project site.
The 165 MW solar power capacity that NTPC Green Energy runs as a business is part of India’s clean energy goals. It helps the country move away from fossil fuels and toward a more sustainable energy mix. Adding more solar power to the grid also makes India’s renewable energy infrastructure stronger and helps meet the growing demand for energy with no emissions.
Significance for Renewable Growth
NTPC Green Energy will be a major player in expanding renewable capacity across the country as long as they keep building long-term solar power capacity.e. Each addition to the group’s solar portfolio brings the company closer to its clean energy expansion goals and aligns with national and global decarbonisation efforts.
NTPC Green Energy is committed to building large-scale renewable infrastructure efficiently, as shown by the phased approach at the Khavda-II solar power project. This will make sure that new capacity is added to India’s power grid on time.
