Tata Power Company Limited has signed a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Rajasthan during the Rising Rajasthan Investor Meet in New Delhi.
The MoU outlines an ambitious investment plan of ~₹1.2 lakh crore over the next 10 years to help transform Rajasthan into a power-surplus state. The investment will focus on providing 24/7 clean, affordable, and reliable power through renewable energy projects, manufacturing, transmission, distribution, nuclear power, rooftop solar installations, and electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure.
This MoU positions Rajasthan at the forefront of India’s clean energy transition, contributing significantly to the country’s energy goals. The agreement was signed in the presence of Shri Bhajan Lal Sharma, the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Rajasthan, Col. Rajyavardhan Rathore, Hon’ble Minister for Industry & Commerce, Rajasthan, and other senior officials, demonstrating the state’s commitment to industrial growth and energy sustainability. Tata Power’s investment will span the entire power value chain, including Transmission & Distribution (T&D) reforms and innovative renewable energy projects, such as solar, wind, hybrid, and battery energy storage systems (BESS), along with rooftop solar and EV charging infrastructure.
Key pillars of the MoU include:
The MoU will make Rajasthan a renewable energy hub, supporting India’s goal of achieving 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2070. The project is expected to create over 28,000 direct jobs in the state, fostering economic growth and reducing energy costs for industries and consumers, positioning Rajasthan as an attractive destination for green investments.
Tata Power already has a strong presence in Rajasthan, with a portfolio that includes 1 GW of solar projects, 185 MW of wind projects, and 130 MW of rooftop solar installations. Additionally, Tata Power’s Ajmer Distribution operations serve over 1 lakh customers, and the company manages the Bikaner-Neemrana Transmission Project, which evacuates 7.7 GW of renewable power from the state. The company also has several major projects in Rajasthan, such as a 225 MW hybrid project in Noorsar, a 1 GW solar EPC project in Bikaner, and more.
Commenting on this development, the CEO and MD of Tata Power, Dr Praveer Sinha, stated that their partnership with the Government of Rajasthan is a testament to their shared vision of building a low-carbon, resilient, and integrated energy ecosystem in the State. By using their experience across the entire power sector value chain, the company aims to support Rajasthan’s energy goals and create economic opportunities for its people.
He further added, “We compliment the State Government’s visionary leadership in positioning Rajasthan as a future-ready, energy-efficient State that provides secure, reliable, and clean energy for all.”
