Hindustan Power Accelerates Renewable Expansion Under Ratul Puri’s Leadership
Hindustan Power, under the leadership of Chairman Ratul Puri, is making significant strides in India’s clean energy landscape. In 2025 alone, the company has secured nearly 1 GW of new solar capacity and over 750 MWh of energy storage projects, reflecting its commitment to expanding an integrated renewable and battery storage portfolio. This expansion is a key part of the company’s ambition to build a 5 GW energy portfolio by 2028, aligning with national goals for sustainable power generation.
A major highlight of this growth has been the signing of a 25‑year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Limited for a 435 MWp solar project. This long‑term agreement will enable Hindustan Power to supply clean solar electricity reliably to the state, supporting local renewable energy targets while fostering sustainable development.
In addition to standalone solar installations, the company has focused on hybrid projects that combine photovoltaic generation with advanced battery energy storage systems (BESS). Projects secured from entities such as SJVN Limited include around 200 MWp of solar capacity paired with more than 250 MWh of storage, demonstrating a clear shift toward dispatchable and grid‑friendly renewable solutions.
Hindustan Power’s efforts aren’t limited to solar alone. In Bihar, the company signed a Battery Energy Storage Purchase Agreement (BESPA) to develop a standalone 120 MWh storage project across multiple substations. Developed under a Build‑Own‑Operate‑Transfer (BOOT) model, this initiative aims to enhance grid flexibility and better manage peak electricity demand.
Another notable achievement was winning a 150 MW SECI bid that involves installing approximately 300 MWp of solar generation and 360 MWh of battery storage. Secured through a competitive e‑reverse auction, this project further strengthens Hindustan Power’s clean energy portfolio and reinforces its strategic emphasis on solar‑plus‑storage solutions.
Through these initiatives, Ratul Puri’s Hindustan Power is demonstrating how integrated renewable energy and storage can help accelerate India’s transition toward a more sustainable, reliable, and future‑ready energy ecosystem. By combining capacity expansion with long‑term power agreements and advanced storage deployment, the company is positioning itself as a key contributor to the nation’s clean‑energy goal
