Share

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath recently met with Tata Group leadership to review progress of the Group’s clean energy projects and discuss electric mobility opportunities in the State.

Aligned with Uttar Pradesh’s EV subsidy policy, Tata Group intends to expand its vehicle manufacturing footprint in the State, including the setting up of dedicated electric vehicle manufacturing capabilities in Uttar Pradesh. It is also exploring opportunities related to the introduction of new EV models, electric bus deployment and broader EV ecosystem development.

The Group confirmed the development of two 50 MW solar power plants in Bundelkhand and Prayagraj, strengthening Uttar Pradesh’s renewable energy capacity.

Active projects include the 1,900 MW Bara thermal power plant in Prayagraj, operating in a 360×3 configuration, which contributes to the State’s power stability and industrial energy requirements.

In parallel, rooftop solar solutions are being scaled across 50 of the State’s 75 districts, supporting decentralised clean energy adoption. Construction is underway for four to five new Tata buildings in Noida, targeted for phased completion by December 2026, reinforcing Noida’s position as a major corporate and commercial hub.
