The USD 4.2 billion project includes 4,000 MW of solar, 1,000 MW of wind and 1,680 MW of pumped hydropower generation. With a storage capacity of 10,080 MWh per day in a single cycle, the dispatchable, carbon-free energy generated will support the production of the above-mentioned industries.
Union Minister of New and Renewable Energy Pralhad Joshi recently took an aerial tour of the facility and visited various components of the mega integrated renewable energy project. “Witnessing an Integrated Renewable Energy Storage Project at Pinnapuram in action — the world’s first and largest of its kind, right here in our country — is a matter of pride and a shining example of India’s green energy potential under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” said Joshi. He also commended the State Government of Andhra Pradesh, under Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, for its progressive policies that have made this pioneering effort possible.
Explaining technical aspects of the project, Anil Chalamalasetty, Group CEO and MD of Greenko, said the groundbreaking initiative, combining solar, wind, and pumped storage power, will make a vital contribution to global efforts to decarbonise hard-to-abate industries. He said, the project would drive economic growth in the region, foster the development of ancillary industries, and create employment opportunities.
The project will help in clean energy generation avoiding 3.3 million tonnes of carbon emissions annually and enhance India’s energy security. Greenko has Intelligent RE Cloud Storage Platform, combined with India’s One Nation, One Grid policy, which facilitates production of the world’s lowest-cost green molecules and driving the acceleration of global economies' decarbonisation.
