Renewable energy company Enfinity Global has secured connectivity for 2GW of utility-scale solar PV and wind projects in India.
The company hailed the development as a key advancement in its efforts to expand its renewable energy portfolio and contribute to India’s energy transition.
The projects are located in the states of Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Karnataka.
The combined capacity of this 2GW portfolio is expected to produce electricity equivalent to powering approximately 4.7 million households and avoiding 49 million metric tons of CO2 annually, the company said.
The power generated from the projects is earmarked for government utilities, as well as commercial and industrial customers.
Chief executive of Enfinity Global Carlos Domenech said: “This milestone underscores our commitment to accelerating India’s renewable energy transition, with the aim of contributing to its ambitious goal of deploying 500GW of non-fossil fuel energy capacity by 2030.
“Our global presence enables us to create capital and operational synergies, and when combined with our local capabilities, it positions us as a strategic and reliable partner for the long-term energy needs of our customers in India.”
With over 1GW of projects expected to enter the construction phase this year, including those in Maharashtra and Karnataka starting in the first quarter of 2025, Enfinity Global’s renewable energy portfolio in India now totals around 3.3GW in various stages.
This includes 240MW already operational, 2GW with granted connectivity, and an additional 1GW of solar PV, wind, and energy storage projects in development.
