NLC India Renewables Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of NLC India Limited, has secured a major project from Tamil Nadu Green Energy Corporation Limited (TNGECL). The company has received the Letter of Award (LoA) for developing three standalone Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects with a combined capacity of 250 MW/500 MWh.
This initiative marks NLCIL Group’s first large-scale BESS project, representing a significant milestone in its clean energy journey. The projects are designed to support two full charging/discharging cycles per day to ensure flexible, on-demand power usage.
The BESS projects will be executed under the Build-Own-Operate (BOO) model with Viability Gap Funding (VGF) provided under the state scheme. The storage units will be installed at three key substations in Tamil Nadu:
-
400/230/110 kV Ottapidaram SS
-
400/230/110 kV Anuppankulam SS
-
400/230/110 kV Kayathar SS
Awarded through a competitive bidding process, this project aligns with Tamil Nadu’s push for green energy infrastructure and highlights NLC India’s growing role in the renewable energy storage space.
