NTPC Renewable Arm starts commercial supply of 165 MW from Khavda 2 solar project in India

NTPC Renewable Energy Ltd has begun commercial power supply of 165 MW from its Khavda-II solar park project in Gujarat, India. The commissioning forms part of NTPC’s broader renewable rollout and continues to contributes to the company’s national clean-energy capacity growth strategy alongside other installments like the 20 GW project in Madhya Pradesh.

Parent Utility: NTPC Limited

Outlook on NTPC Khavda 2 Solar Project

By bringing capacity online in modular tranches rather than waiting for full-park completion, NTPC is not only aiming for grid contribution but also to improve cash flow timing. All this is while continuing construction of later phases.

As additional blocks at Khavda reach COD, government-backed NTPC is also positioned to scale renewable generation rapidly. This continues to reinforce its target of becoming a dominant clean-energy producer in Asia.

Additionally, the site’s ultra-large land parcel and grid infrastructure makes it suitable for possible hybrid solar-wind-storage configurations in future phases.
