Hindustan Power has signed a power purchase agreement (PPA) with Uttar Pradesh Power Corp. Ltd (UPPCL) for a 435 MW DC solar PV project to be set up in the state. The project was awarded by UPPCL through a competitive bidding process in April 2025.
Under the agreement, Hindustan Power will supply clean power for 25 years from the upcoming project. The company has commenced on-ground operations with the inauguration of its office at the site.
This 435 MW DC solar power project marks a significant leap forward in the state’s renewable energy journey, bringing it closer to the UP government’s ambitious target of 22 GW by 2026–27.
“The signing of the power purchase agreement sets the wheels in motion for rapid on-ground implementation. We are moving ahead at full pace to ensure that every aspect, from site development to stakeholder coordination, is executed seamlessly and on schedule,” said Ratul Puri, Chairman, Hindustan Power. “This project reflects our strong focus on delivering clean and reliable energy while supporting Uttar Pradesh’s vision of becoming a trillion-dollar economy.”
Hindustan Power has already initiated ground-level operations, including stakeholder coordination, workforce engagement, and site development. This project is a key component of the company’s broader strategy to expand its presence in renewable energy across the country. This initiative also supports the company’s goal of achieving a 5 GW clean energy portfolio.
