Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL), a subsidiary of The Tata Power Company Limited, and a front-runner in India’s renewable energy sector, has signed a Power Delivery Agreement (PDA) with Neosym Industry Limited for the Jamkhed solar power plant. Neosym is a leading manufacturer in Gray & S.G. Iron casting in India. The partnership is for a 26 MW AC Group Captive Solar Plant situated at Jamkhed, Ahmednagar in Maharashtra.
The Green Impact: Numbers that Matter
The Jamkhed solar power plant is expected to commence operations by March 2024, with an estimated electricity generation capacity of 59 million units per year. The plant aligns with India’s climate goals by projecting to reduce approximately 32,500 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually. Both TPREL and Neosym demonstrate a firm commitment to environmental stewardship through this collaboration.
Industry Leaders Speak on The Milestone

Government Initiatives Boosting the Solar Wave
The Indian Government is actively promoting group captive solar projects as a low-risk, high-reward strategy for accelerating renewable energy adoption. With the backing of incentives, subsidies, and mandates like Renewable Purchase Obligations (RPOs), the move encourages businesses and communities to invest more in sustainable energy solutions.
TPREL’s Expanding Renewable Portfolio
TPREL is already catering to diverse C&I consumers across sectors including Steel, Automotive, Polymer, Hospitality, Retail, and Realty, encouraging them to embrace renewable energy for sustainable operations.
