Reliance Infra Wins NHPC Order for 390 MW Solar-BESS Project

Reliance Infrastructure has received a Letter of Award (LoA) from NHPC, a Navratna CPSE, for developing a 390 MW interstate transmission system (ISTS)-connected solar power project with a battery energy storage system (BESS).

The project, once commissioned, will add 700 MWp of solar DC capacity and 780 MWh of BESS capacity to Reliance Group’s clean energy portfolio, strengthening its position in integrated renewable energy solutions.

Awarded at a tariff of ₹3.13/kWh, the project ranks among the most competitive in India’s renewable energy sector. The LoA was finalized under an NHPC tender that saw participation from 15 bidders, with 14 qualifying for the e-reverse auction.
