NTPC Green Energy Adds Solar and Wind Capacity in Gujarat
NTPC Green Energy (NSE: NTPCGREEN) has commissioned solar and wind capacity in Gujarat, with the total figure reported at between 68.22 MW and 77.67 MW. Kalkine India, reporting on 21 September 2026, cited 68.22 MW of solar capacity commissioned at Dahod, while Saur Energy and Solarbytes reported a combined solar and wind figure of 77.67 MW for Gujarat, with Solarbytes publishing on 19 September 2026 and Saur Energy on 21 September 2026. The discrepancy across outlets means the precise capacity breakdown cannot be confirmed from available information.

What the Outlets Reported
Three outlets covered this development. Kalkine India (21 September 2026) reported 68.22 MW of solar capacity commissioned at Dahod, Gujarat. Saur Energy (21 September 2026) reported 77.67 MW of combined solar and wind capacity operationalised in Gujarat, without specifying Dahod by name. Solarbytes (19 September 2026) also reported 77.67 MW of solar and wind commissioned in India, consistent with the Saur Energy figure. Suppliers and contractors should note that the Dahod location is corroborated only by Kalkine India, while the 77.67 MW aggregate figure is corroborated by two outlets.
NTPC Green Energy's Broader Project Portfolio
Projects India tracks several other large-scale projects linked to NTPC Green Energy. These include a Green Hydrogen and Ammonia Unit Plant at Pudimadaka, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh (Phase I and Phase II), each valued at Rs 55,000 crore, as well as a Phase II expansion valued at Rs 16,342.59 crore at the same location. A Battery Energy Storage System project at NTPC Kayamkulam, Alappuzha, Kerala is also tracked, with value not yet recorded. These projects indicate an active capital expenditure programme across multiple technologies and states. Full details of power projects tracked in India are available on the Projects India platform.
Gujarat and the Wind-Solar Pipeline in India
Gujarat is the most active state for wind-based power project activity in India by Projects India's records. Of the 338 wind-based power projects tracked nationally, 124 are located in Gujarat — the highest count of any state. Maharashtra follows with 58 projects, Andhra Pradesh with 42, Karnataka with 36, Tamil Nadu with 25, and Madhya Pradesh with 21.
Across the full wind-based power project pipeline in India, the stage breakdown shows 120 projects under approvals, 84 completed, 55 in planning, 55 with construction started, 8 with approvals received, and 5 at an early or announced stage. The concentration of activity at the approvals and planning stages signals a significant volume of future tendering and construction work yet to be unlocked nationally. No new wind-based power projects were added to the Projects India database in the last 90 days, and there are currently no open India tenders in the Power Projects sector on the platform.
Recent projects with construction started in the wind sector include a Rs 1,800 crore Wind Based Power Unit project at Koppal, Karnataka by Serentica Renewables India, a Rs 944 crore Wind-Solar Hybrid project in Rajasthan by AMPIN Energy Utility, a Rs 800 crore Battery Energy Storage System at Khavda RE Power Park, Kutch, Gujarat by Gensol Engineering, and a Rs 468 crore Wind Based Power Unit project at Bharuch, Gujarat by KPI Green Energy Limited. Bharuch is also in Gujarat, underlining the state's position as a primary focus for renewable capital deployment.
What this means for suppliers and contractors
The commissioning of solar and wind capacity by NTPC Green Energy in Gujarat adds to evidence of active project execution in the state, which already accounts for the largest share of wind-based power projects tracked by Projects India. For equipment suppliers, civil contractors and electrical works firms, Gujarat's combination of projects under approvals, projects with construction started, and now commissioning activity makes it the priority geography for near-term business development in this sub-sector.
The pipeline of 120 projects nationally still under approvals represents the most substantial forward opportunity. Suppliers tracking early-stage projects in Maharashtra (58 tracked), Andhra Pradesh (42 tracked) and Karnataka (36 tracked) should monitor approvals progress closely, as movement from that stage to construction-ready can generate procurement and tendering activity within months. The NTPC Green Energy hydrogen and BESS projects in Andhra Pradesh and Kerala also indicate that the promoter's procurement activity extends well beyond solar and wind generation assets.
Contractors and vendors can monitor live tenders and the full tracked project list via the Projects India project database and the live tenders page.
Frequently asked questions
How much capacity has NTPC Green Energy commissioned in Gujarat?
Outlets report between 68.22 MW and 77.67 MW of solar and wind capacity commissioned in Gujarat. Kalkine India cited 68.22 MW of solar at Dahod, while Saur Energy and Solarbytes reported 77.67 MW of combined solar and wind capacity in the state.
Where is the NTPC Green Energy solar and wind project located in Gujarat?
Dahod is cited as the location by Kalkine India. Saur Energy and Solarbytes referred to Gujarat without specifying Dahod. The Dahod location is therefore corroborated by only one of the three reporting outlets.
How many wind-based power projects are tracked in Gujarat?
Projects India tracks 124 wind-based power projects in Gujarat, the highest count of any state in India, ahead of Maharashtra with 58, Andhra Pradesh with 42, Karnataka with 36, Tamil Nadu with 25, and Madhya Pradesh with 21.
What other projects does NTPC Green Energy have in India?
Projects India tracks NTPC Green Energy projects including Green Hydrogen and Ammonia plants at Pudimadaka, Visakhapatnam valued at Rs 55,000 crore each across two phases, a Phase II expansion at Rs 16,342.59 crore, and a Battery Energy Storage System in Kerala.
