Goldman Sachs-promoted ReNew Power commissioned a 300-megawatt (Mw) wind project in the Kutch district of Gujarat. The project was executed by ReNew’s arm, ReNew Wind Energy (AP2), and has a power-purchase agreement (PPA) with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) under wind power project bidding tranche-III.
With this project, ReNew’s total wind energy capacity in Gujarat increased to 950 Mw. The project will supply power to districts in Haryana and Odisha at Rs 2.44 per kWh.
“The commissioning is a significant achievement for everyone at ReNew Power since the team has worked hard to put together one of the largest wind farms in the state with 120 turbines and has put in place 73 kms of EHV transmission lines and over 330 kms of medium voltage transmission
