Enfinity Global Secures Grid Connectivity for 2 GW of Solar and Wind Projects in India
Mar 07, 2025
Enfinity Global has achieved a major milestone by securing grid connectivity for 2 GW of solar and wind projects in India. This marks a significant step in supporting the country’s renewable energy targets.
Key Factors in Site Selection
- Resource Availability – Locations were chosen for optimal solar and wind potential to ensure high energy yield.
- Execution Speed & Market Competitiveness – Projects are structured for rapid deployment, aligning with India’s energy expansion goals.
- Regulatory & Market Maturity – Sites were selected with a focus on ease of approvals and long-term policy stability.
Operational Timeline and Industry Impact
Grid interconnections remain a key challenge in India due to infrastructure limitations. While the country is expanding its green energy corridor, Enfinity’s projects are set to be operational by 2026-27, ensuring a timely contribution to the 2030 renewable energy goals. These projects will provide reliable, cost-effective clean power to industries such as manufacturing, data centers, steel, automotive, and pharmaceuticals, aiding their decarbonization efforts.
Financial Backing & Growth Strategy
Enfinity Global’s growth in India is backed by $135 million financing from the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments). This capital infusion will help accelerate execution, expand its footprint, and strengthen financial sustainability. The company follows a “design to build” and “build to own” strategy, ensuring long-term commitment to India's clean energy transition.
Technological Advancements in Solar & Wind
- AI-driven Asset Management – Uses advanced analytics to monitor performance at both the device and plant levels.
- Digital Twin Technology – AI-powered fault detection system enhances operational reliability and minimizes downtime.
- Predictive Analytics – Helps in early issue detection, improving efficiency and sustainability of operations.
Alignment with India’s 500 GW Non-Fossil Fuel Target
Enfinity Global is committed to being a key contributor to India’s 500 GW non-fossil fuel target by 2030. In the short term, it aims to accelerate execution and deliver dispatchable energy solutions to industries and utilities. For the long term, the company is focused on scaling up rapidly with innovative technology and financial resilience.
Impact of India’s Domestic Manufacturing Policies
India’s push for domestic solar manufacturing through policies like the PLI scheme, Basic Customs Duty (BCD), and ALMM regulations strengthens local supply chains and reduces import dependency. While short-term supply chain challenges exist, these policies create opportunities for local partnerships and long-term market stability. Enfinity Global sees these regulations as enabling a resilient and competitive renewable energy sector in India.
With its global expertise, financial strength, and technology-driven approach, Enfinity Global remains a trusted partner in India’s transition to a low-carbon economy, supporting energy security and sustainability.
