Commercial & Industrial PV

Havells India has partnered with Kundan Green Energy to develop a 15 MW AC solar project in Rajasthan for captive power consumption. The project will be implemented through Kundan Solar (Pali), a special purpose vehicle (SPV) created to develop, install, operate, and maintain solar power plants.

Bondada Engineering Ltd has announced the successful commissioning of 48.47 MWp of solar power projects for Paradigm IT, MAHAGENCO, and NLC India Ltd.

India added 6.1 GW of open-access (off-site commercial and industrial) solar capacity in the first nine months (9M) of calendar year (CY) 2025, up around 13% from the 5.4 GW installed during 9M 2024—according to a new report by Mercom.

Candi Solar, a provider of distributed solar solutions for commercial and industrial (C&I) businesses, has secured $58.5 million in funding led by the International Finance Corp. (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group. The facility will directly finance nearly 200 MWp of new projects.

Modern wind turbines and solar plants generate large volumes of operational data. By leveraging analytics, inefficiencies can be identified, performance assessed in real-time, and emerging issues addressed before they escalate. A dynamic operations and maintenance (O&M) support system builds on this intelligence to provide a strong grip on performance levels while minimising downtime.

JMK Research expects India to add around 41.5 GW of new solar capacity in FY2026 (twelve months ending March 31, 2026). Of this annual addition, around 32 GW is expected to come from utility-scale projects, 8 GW from rooftop solar, and 1.5 GW from off-grid systems.

The country’s planned steel capacity expansion presents an opportunity to adopt cleaner technologies if supported by the right financing pathways.  

As renewable capacity rises, the question is no longer whether India can generate green power. The real challenge is whether the grid can absorb it smoothly and deliver it reliably when people actually need it. This is where battery energy storage systems (BESS) are increasingly seen not as a luxury but as a core part of grid planning.

Sunsure Energy has signed a long-term solar power purchase agreement (PPA) with Bisleri International to supply solar power to Bisleri’s manufacturing facility in Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. The power will be sourced from Sunsure’s 82.5 MWp solar plant in Erach, Uttar Pradesh.

Around 92% of the required investments—about $3.79 trillion—would flow into the energy transition, spanning renewable energy, storage, clean mobility, and green hydrogen.
