ENGIE has been awarded its first hybrid project in India, combining 200 MW of solar PV with 100 MW / 600 MWh of battery storage. The project will enable the storage and supply of up to 6 hours of renewable energy and represents a significant milestone in ENGIE's expansion in India's renewable energy market.

The project was awarded under SECI's (Solar Energy Corporation of India) national tender and will store and deliver up to 6 hours of renewable energy, enabling firm, clean power. This achievement strengthens ENGIE's role in India's ambition for round-the-clock renewable power.

Project Specifications and Timeline

The hybrid system combines 200 MW of solar photovoltaic capacity with a 100 MW / 600 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). By integrating large-scale solar with long-duration storage, the project aims to deliver round-the-clock renewable power and enhance grid resilience in an increasingly dynamic energy landscape.

The project will now move into development phases, including engineering, procurement, and regulatory approvals, followed by construction and commissioning in 2028. The development will proceed through these structured phases before becoming operational.

ENGIE's Growing Presence in India

ENGIE currently has nearly 2 GW of renewable assets in operation or under construction in India. This hybrid project follows the company's first standalone BESS project of 280 MW / 560 MWh that was secured in November, demonstrating continued expansion in India's fast-growing renewable energy market.

The company continues to expand its footprint in India's renewable energy sector, with this hybrid project marking an important step in a fast-growing market for renewables and flexibility. ENGIE's presence in India represents a significant portion of its regional renewable energy portfolio.

Global Renewable Energy Portfolio

ENGIE has 55 GW of renewable and storage capacity already in operation as of September 30, 2025. The company is firmly on track to achieve its ambition of 95 GW worldwide by 2030, with this Indian project contributing to that global expansion target.

This milestone further strengthens ENGIE's global leadership in flexible, low-carbon energy solutions. The hybrid project represents part of the company's broader strategy to build future-ready, low-carbon energy systems across international markets.

Executive Commentary

Paulo Almirante, ENGIE Senior Executive Vice President in charge of Renewable and Flexible Power, commented on the project's significance. He stated that winning the first hybrid solar-plus-storage project in India marks an important step for ENGIE in a fast-growing market for renewables and flexibility.

Almirante emphasized that by combining large-scale solar with long-duration storage, the company strengthens grid resilience and enables 24/7 renewable power for customers. He noted that this achievement reflects ENGIE's commitment to building a future-ready, low-carbon energy system and the company's role as a long-term partner in India's energy transition.
