Juniper Green bags deals for 480-MW hybrid renewable energy projects

These will be located in Gujarat and Maharashtra.

Juniper Green Energy has signed two power purchase agreements (PPA) with Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (GUVNL) and NTPC Limited for two hybrid clean energy projects with a total capacity of 480 megawatts (MW).

In a statement, Juniper said one of the projects is the GUVNL Hybrid Phase 1, which will be the first hybrid initiative with GUVNL. It will have 140 MW solar and 50 MW wind that will generate 412 million units (MUs) of electricity annually and eliminate 384,067 tonnes of carbon.

This will supply clean energy to 82,016 households in Gujarat.

The second project is the NTPC Hybrid Tranche -1, Juniper’s largest hybrid project to date, in partnership with NTPC. This will have 210 MW solar and 80 MW wind, producing 633 MUs of electricity per year, reducing carbon emissions by 590,810 tonnes.

Around 126,165 households across Gujarat and Rajasthan will benefit from this power plant.

“These strategic partnerships with GUVNL and NTPC signify more than just contracts; they represent our collaborative efforts towards pioneering hybrid energy solutions. By joining forces with esteemed partners like GUVNL and NTPC, we are building robust renewable energy infrastructure that will drive India’s sustainable future,” said Naresh Mansukhani, CEO of Juniper Green Energy.
