Clean energy and green hydrogen engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) company GH2 Solar has announced plans to develop a 100 megawatt (MW) solar power project integrated with a battery energy storage system in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, at an estimated investment of Rs 400 crore to Rs 450 crore, according to an official press release, PTI reported.
The project will be developed under the independent power producer (IPP) model and will be commissioned subject to regulatory approvals. It will include a 100 MW/60 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS), structured across two parcels of 50 MW/30 MWh each.
Situated in a high solar irradiation zone, the facility is designed to supply round-the-clock renewable power primarily for industrial consumption and green hydrogen production. The project is expected to generate approximately 16 crore units of electricity annually.
Anurag Jain, Founder and Managing Director of GH2 Solar, said the pairing of solar generation with energy storage is central to the project’s purpose. “The combination of solar and battery energy storage allows us to address intermittency and provide dependable renewable power for industries transitioning towards low-carbon operations and green hydrogen,” he said.
The announcement reflects the growing momentum in India’s integrated renewable energy segment, where solar capacity is increasingly being paired with storage to deliver reliable baseload power for energy-intensive industries and emerging green fuel applications.
