Renewable energy firm ACME Solar has officially commissioned a 66.7 MW solar generation unit together with a 300 MWh battery energy storage system in Rajasthan, marking a significant addition to the state’s clean‑energy capacity.
ACME Solar announced the commissioning of a new solar power plant with a capacity of 66.7 megawatts in Rajasthan, complemented by a 300‑megawatt‑hour battery energy storage system (BESS). The facilities are now operational and will feed electricity directly into the regional grid, enhancing supply stability in the area.
The addition brings Rajasthan's renewable generation portfolio closer to its ambitious state targets for solar and storage, which aim to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and curb emissions. Industry analysts note that the combined solar‑BESS model improves load balancing, especially during peak demand periods and intermittent generation.
ACME Solar, which has been expanding its footprint across northern India, highlighted that the project aligns with its strategy to develop integrated renewable assets that can deliver both clean power and grid‑support services. The company plans to monitor performance closely as part of its broader commitment to sustainable energy development in the region.
