Gensol Engineering Becomes Preferred Bidder for 116 MW Solar Projects

Gensol Engineering Ltd., a prominent player in the renewable energy sector, has recently made significant strides in advancing solar and battery storage projects in Gujarat. This marks a substantial development in the company’s ongoing efforts to enhance sustainable energy solutions across the region.

Gensol Engineering Wins Rs 600 Crore Solar Projects in Gujarat

Gensol Engineering Ltd. has emerged as the winning bidder for solar projects totaling 116 megawatts (MW) across Gujarat. The projects, valued at Rs 600 crore, will be distributed across 27 diverse locations under the auspices of Paschim Gujarat Vij Co., the state electricity distribution company. According to the exchange filing on Monday, these solar projects aim to achieve feeder-level solarisation and are expected to be operational within 12 months from the issuance of the letter of award.

Feeder-level solarisation involves installing solar projects at the feeder level to meet the annual power requirements of agricultural loads. This can be achieved by utilizing either already separated feeders or those primarily dedicated to agriculture from a distribution substation, the filing detailed.

Battery Storage Project from Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Ltd

In addition to the solar projects, Gensol Engineering has also been awarded a significant battery storage project by Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Ltd. This project, worth Rs 1,340 crore, will provide 250 MW of energy with the capacity for two charge/discharge cycles per day. This new venture underscores Gensol Engineering’s expanding footprint in the renewable energy sector.

Conclusion: Gensol Engineering’s recent project wins highlight its significant role in advancing renewable energy infrastructure in Gujarat. With both solar and battery storage projects underway, the company continues to lead in sustainable energy solutions. The stock of Gensol Engineering is currently locked in its upper circuit limit of 5% at Rs.985.15 a piece. The stock has a 52-week high and 52-week low of Rs.1376.00 and Rs.460.18 respectively.
