Message from Project Director

Our Pinnapuram Integrated Renewable Energy Project has been conceived as one of its kind in the World’s First & Largest Gigawatt Scale integrated project with Solar, Wind and Pumped Storage components that can supply Schedulable Power On Demand (SPOD) which is Dispatchable & Schedulable Renewable Energy for the first time to consumers across India. It can play an immensely important role in facilitating India’s energy security and transition to a low cost, low carbon electricity market that will require flexible, dispatchable, as well as peak power capacity. This project is being developed as a closed-loop system far from rivers with minimal environmental and social impacts unlike conventional Hydro projects. It can be considered as a clean and green energy with Round the clock (RTC) power supply without battery system, IREP is more eco-friendly project better than the battery system.

We have already kickstarted the construction works for this flagship project and would like to complete the project in record time of 30 Months, targeting to Commission by 2024. By following an intense schedules of site establishment and preparation works, I am delighted to inform that our design consultants and our contractors have been engaged in the construction works and already powerhouse, tunnels, upper reservoir, lower reservoir, CPSS and evacuation system, have achieved the substantial progress. This represents a significant milestone in the project construction timelines, which is in line with planned schedule. We look forward to working alongside the Stakeholders and keeping the progress updated as per the timelines to continue to push ahead over the course of this year.

While the focus is on achieving project execution milestones, utmost importance has been given to fulfilling the requirements of Quality, Occupational Health and Safety, Environmental Management, Social Accountability, and Social Responsibility. Our passionate team is working round the clock and putting their untiring efforts with full of energy and high motivation to complete this ultra-mega project within the stipulated timelines in line with our vision and mission. Our contractors are also putting their 100% effort to complete this prestigious project. As a Project Director, I am immensely proud to be part of this one of its kind Ultra mega project.
