New Delhi, India | 23 June 2025 – Clean energy solutions company Gentari has commissioned a 150 MWp
open-access solar plant in Wardha, Maharashtra. Located in
Dahegaon village, Yavatmal district, and connected to the state
transmission utility (STU), the project stands among the largest
of its kind in the state for commercial and industrial (C&I)
consumers. It significantly expands Gentari’s capacity to
supply renewable electricity to consumers within Maharashtra under
the state’s green open access framework.
Expected
to generate approximately 248 million units (kWh) of green
electricity annually, the plant enables industries across the
state to tap into cleaner sources of energy, potentially achieving
over 238,576 tonnes of CO₂ emissions avoidance each
year.
With this commissioning, Gentari’s total
capacity for the C&I sector in Maharashtra now exceeds 225
MWp, reinforcing its leadership in delivering scalable, reliable,
clean energy solutions for industrial users in one of
India’s most energy-intensive states.
“Maharashtra’s
commercial and industrial consumers have been showing strong
momentum in the shift to clean energy. This project supports that
transition by providing reliable solar power at scale, unlocking
both environmental and operational value,” said Sharad
Pungalia, Country Head, India, Gentari.
Beyond
environmental benefits, Wardha plant also generated significant
socio-economic value during its construction, engaging over 300
local workers, deploying regional resources, and extended
community outreach efforts to nearby villages.
The
project forms part of Gentari’s broader clean energy
portfolio in India and Asia Pacific, where it is advancing
integrated solutions across solar, green hydrogen, and green
mobility to accelerate the global energy transition.
