By GlobalDataNTPC has launched extensive projects, including pilot initiatives for green hydrogen, floating solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and battery energy storage technologies.
Founded in 1975, NTPC has been instrumental in supplying power to support India’s industrial growth and urban development.
In 2021, it became the first significant utility to pledge to a UN Energy Compact, establishing ambitious goals for renewable energy capacity.
While a considerable part of its installed capacity comes from thermal power stations, NTPC has swiftly expanded its renewable energy portfolio.
The company now accounts for almost a quarter of India’s overall electricity generation, solidifying its position in the nation’s energy security landscape.
NTPC chairman and managing director Gurdeep Singh stated: “Our aim is to foster responsible, sustainable economic development through an energy strategy that champions energy security, social inclusiveness, environmental stewardship, and growth powered by data, technology and innovation.
“This agreement positions us to meet the rising demand from communities and industry while keeping us at the leading edge of the energy transition.”
In April 2025, Suzlon was awarded a new 378MW wind energy project by NTPC Green Energy.
