Jindal Stainless and Oyster Renewable Energy today announced the part commissioning of a 315.6 MW solar-wind hybrid renewable energy project in Agar-Malwa, Madhya Pradesh, marking a significant milestone in advancing clean energy adoption within India's industrial sector.
The project, developed by Oyster Renewable and set at a total investment of over Rs 2,000 crore, includes a committed investment of Rs 132 crore from Jindal Stainless. It spans Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat, with
216 MW of solar and wind power to be generated in Madhya Pradesh and an additional 99 MW in Gujarat. The project is currently being commissioned in phases, starting with the Madhya Pradesh facility, to be followed by the commissioning of the Gujarat facility. Designed to support Jindal Stainless' transition towards a cleaner and more resilient energy mix, the project reinforces the growing role of large-scale renewable infrastructure in driving industrial decarbonisation.
The project integrates bifacial solar modules with tracker systems alongside advanced Suzlon 3.15 MW wind turbines in a co-located hybrid configuration. This design enables a more balanced renewable generation profile by harnessing both solar and wind resources, helping improve power availability and supporting the delivery of more stable renewable energy for industrial consumption.
