  • The project's innovative design combines solar, wind, and pumped hydropower storage, providing round-the-clock, carbon-free energy and supporting industries such as green steel, aluminum, and hydrogen production.
  • Once fully operational, the project is expected to avoid approximately 3.3 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually, demonstrating a significant commitment to reducing environmental impact.
  • The project's total investment of USD 4.2 billion highlights India's leadership in clean energy innovation and the potential for integrated renewable systems to power industrial growth while aligning with climate goals.
The Hon'ble Union Minister of New and Renewable Energy & Consumer Affairs, Food & Public Distribution, Shri Pralhad Joshi, visited Greenko's Integrated Renewable Energy Project in Pinnapuram, Andhra Pradesh. The project, described as the world's first and largest gigawatt-scale integrated renewable energy project, combines 4,000 MW of solar generation, 1,000 MW of wind capacity, and 1,680 MW of pumped hydropower storage, providing round-the-clock, carbon-free energy. The project's daily storage capacity of 10,080 MWh enables dispatchable power supporting industries like green steel, aluminum, and hydrogen production. The visit highlighted the project's role in advancing India's energy independence and sustainability objectives, with a focus on reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Beyond emissions reduction, the project addresses renewable energy's intermittency issue by integrating large-scale storage with generation assets. The Pinnapuram facility aims to deliver reliable, clean electricity on demand, aligning with India's energy policies. The project's Intelligent Renewable Energy Cloud Storage Platform supports real-time energy balancing and contributes to global decarbonization efforts by enabling low-cost green molecules production for international markets. The total investment of USD 4.2 billion emphasizes India's clean energy innovation leadership. Greenko's initiative showcases the potential of integrated renewable systems to power industrial growth while supporting climate goals, reinforcing the commitment to building renewable energy infrastructure.
