RE firm SWREL seeks India expansion by working with large corporates

Engineering major will participate in projects where supply and land risk is not there: CEO

Sterling and Wilson Renewable Energy Ltd (SWREL), one of the world's largest engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) players in the solar sector, seeks to expand in the Indian market on the back of oil major Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL).

SWREL, which has portfolios in the US, Australia, UAE, hinges its India growth plans by partnering with institutions. The Khavda solar project of state-owned power generator NTPC is among the works it has in its kitty.

Khavda, one of the largest solar parks planned by NTPC, will have a capacity of 4.75 gigawatts, of which SWREL will construct 1.5 GW.
