Sembcorp Industries’ arm Green Infra Wind Energy has bagged a wind energy project of 180 MW in a recently concluded auction.

The letter of award from the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) for the project has been received by Sembcorp's renewables subsidiary Green Infra Wind Energy.

The project is proposed to be situated in Karnataka. Upon the completion of the project, its power output will be sold to SECI under 25-year long-term power purchase agreement (PPA).

Winning the 180 MW SECI wind power project is an endorsement of its competitiveness and capabilities in renewable energy. It aligns with its target of growing its renewable portfolio and fits well with its long-term commitment to India's energy transition.

Sembcorp in 2020 completed the commissioning of 800 MW of wind projects won from the first three SECI bids. With the win of the 180 MW wind power project, Sembcorp's total capacity of installed and under-construction renewable energy assets in India is more than 2.3 GW.
