Renewable energy firm ACME Solar Holdings has commissioned the first 28 MW phase of its 100 MW wind power project in Surendranagar, Gujarat, marking a step forward in its clean energy portfolio.

With this addition, the company’s operational capacity has risen from 2,890 MW to 2,918 MW, the firm announced in a statement on Saturday (18 October).

The new facility will share this substation with ACME Solar’s previously commissioned 50 MW wind power project.

Power generated will be supplied under a 25 year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (GUVNL).

"The current commissioning of 28 MW is part of the 100 MW ACME Eco Clean wind project to be fully commissioned in phases.
