New Delhi, July 18 Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL) on Thursday joined NHPC Renewable Energy Limited (NHPC-REL) to spearhead the installation of rooftop solar projects on government buildings across the country.

This initiative, under the ambitious PM Surya Ghar Yojna Scheme, aims for 100 per cent solarisation of government-owned buildings by December 2025.

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has appointed NHPC Limited as a scheme implementing partner (SIP) to drive the rooftop solar projects, which will be carried out by its wholly-owned subsidiary, NHPC-REL.

By combining forces, TPREL and NHPC-REL are poised to make significant strides toward India's renewable energy objectives, setting new standards for future endeavours in the industry.

“This initiative will not only help us meet our solarisation targets but also contribute significantly to reducing the carbon footprint of government buildings,” said RP Goyal, CMD, NHPC.

The strategic alliance will help implement rooftop solar projects across Central ministries, states and Union Territories.
