ENGIE Secures Its First Hybrid Solar & Storage Project in India

ENGIE has achieved a new milestone in its India growth journey by winning its first hybrid project, combining 200 MW of solar PV with a 100 MW / 600 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). Awarded under SECI’s (Solar Energy Corporation of India) national tender, the project will store and deliver up to 6 hours of renewable energy, enabling firm, clean power.

With nearly 2 GW of renewable assets in operation or under construction in the country and following its first standalone BESS project (280 MW / 560 MWh) secured in November, ENGIE continues to expand its footprint in India’s fast-growing market. By integrating large-scale solar with long-duration storage, the Group is helping to deliver round-the-clock renewable power and enhance grid resilience in an increasingly dynamic energy landscape.

This milestone further strengthens ENGIE’s global leadership in flexible, low-carbon energy solutions. With 55 GW of renewable and storage capacity already in operation as of September 30, 2025, the Group is firmly on track to achieve its ambition of 95 GW worldwide by 2030.

“Winning our first hybrid solar-plus-storage project in India marks an important step for ENGIE in a fast-growing market for renewables and flexibility. By combining large-scale solar with long-duration storage, we strengthen grid resilience and make it possible to deliver 24/7 renewable power for our customers . This achievement reflects our commitment to building a future-ready, low-carbon energy system and our role as a long-term partner in India’s energy transition” said Paulo Almirante, ENGIE Senior Executive Vice President in charge of Renewable and Flexible Power.

The project will now move into development phases, including engineering, procurement, and regulatory approvals, followed by construction and commissioning in 2028.
