JSW Energy Commissions ~250 MW Renewable Energy Capacity, Total Installed Capacity Reaches 13.7 GW

JSW Energy Limited has announced the commissioning of nearly 250 MW of renewable energy capacity since April 2026, strengthening its position in India’s clean energy sector. The newly added capacity includes 130 MW of wind power, 69.4 MW of solar power, and 50 MW from the Tidong Hydro Plant. Following this addition, the company’s total installed power generation capacity has reached 13.7 GW.

A major highlight of the announcement is the commissioning of Tidong Unit-I after the company acquired the asset in January 2026. JSW Energy stated that the project was completed in a record turnaround time, reflecting the company’s strong execution capability and its ability to efficiently integrate acquired assets into operations. The commissioning also allows the company to benefit from the ongoing hydro season. The remaining two units of the Tidong Hydro Plant are expected to become operational by June 2026.

With the latest additions, renewable energy now accounts for around 59% of JSW Energy’s total operational capacity. The company currently operates 3,924 MW of wind capacity and 2,440 MW of solar capacity, including hybrid renewable projects. In addition, the company’s hydro power portfolio has reached 1,681 MW.

JSW Energy also highlighted its broader growth pipeline and future expansion plans. The company currently has a total locked-in generation capacity of 32.1 GW. Out of this, 13.7 GW is already operational, while 13.8 GW is under construction across thermal, hydro, and renewable energy segments. Another 4.6 GW remains in the development pipeline.

The company plans to add nearly 3 GW of renewable energy capacity during FY27. To support this expansion, JSW Energy expects to invest around ₹20,000 crore in capital expenditure during the financial year. The company is also actively expanding its energy storage portfolio, which currently stands at 29.6 GWh of locked-in capacity. This includes 26.4 GWh from pumped hydro storage projects and 3.2 GWh from battery energy storage systems.
