Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Power, yesterday commissioned its 44 MW Lahori wind farm project, located at Shajapur in Madhya Pradesh. With this addition, Tata Power's total installed capacity now stands at 9,183 MW, besides 2 million customers it serves through retail power distribution.
The 44-MW Lahori wind farm project is expected to generate approximately 84 million units (MUs) per year. TPREL also has a further 500 MW of wind capacity under development and construction in Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Karnataka. The company continues to pursue avenues to add clean and renewable energy generation capacities to increase its portfolio.
TPREL proposes to grow its capacity through organic and inorganic means over the next few years. TPREL’s strategy emphasises the development of clean energy generation from non-fossil fuel and renewable energy sources to balance the carbon emissions from fossil fuel based generation capacity while contributing towards energy security of the country.
