New Delhi: Mahindra Susten, a leading renewable energy IPP (Independent Power Producer), on Tuesday announced that the Company had successfully commissioned 560 MWp of solar capacity in CY 2025. These large utility-scale solar power projects mark the first batch of assets developed and commissioned by the Company following the sale of 1.54GWp of assets in 2024 to Sustainable Energy Infra Trust, an InvIT Co-sponsored by Mahindra Susten as part of its efficient capital light business model.
The portfolio addition comprises two strategically located projects—a 280 MWp solar plant in Gujarat and a 280 MWp facility in Rajasthan, both selling power under a 25-year long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) to Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (GUVNL) and Rajasthan Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (RUVNL), respectively.
Project overview
Together, the Gujarat and Rajasthan projects span close to 2,000 acres and are designed to deliver reliable utility-scale power to the state grids. Across both sites, Mahindra Susten has deployed the latest-generation N-Type TOPCon bifacial modules, integrated with high-efficiency inverters, dry-cleaning solutions and optimized balance-of-system configurations to maximise energy yield over the asset life. Power is evacuated through 220 kV substations, thereby ensuring high grid availability and enabling seamless integration with high voltage state grids.
The combined 560 MWp portfolio is expected to generate close to 1,000 million units (MUs) of clean electricity annually, using approximately 12,400 tons of steel, 2,600 km of cabling and around 1 million solar modules. Execution of these projects involved a peak workforce of about 1,000 people and was completed with 2.9 million safe man-hours, underscoring Mahindra Susten’s strong focus on safety, quality and disciplined project management.
Avinash Rao, MD & CEO of Mahindra Susten said, “Commissioning 560 MWp across Gujarat and Rajasthan in 2025 marks yet another major milestone for Mahindra Susten. It reflects our strong execution capabilities and commitment to delivering large-scale renewable assets safely and to the highest standards of quality. Building on 15 years of expertise, we are deepening our presence across utility-scale solar and wind, storage, hybrid, and group-captive projects, reinforcing our pledge to support our nation’s clean energy goals and create lasting value for communities and stakeholders.”
