NTPC Limited ( (IN:NTPC) ) has shared an announcement.
NTPC’s board has approved an investment of Rs 5,821.90 crore to develop a 4.70 GWh Battery Energy Storage System, underscoring the company’s pivot toward large-scale storage solutions to enhance grid stability and support renewable integration. In parallel, the board cleared an additional equity infusion of Rs 3,173.67 crore into joint venture Meja Urja Nigam Private Limited to fund the 2,400 MW Meja Super Thermal Power Project Stage-II, keeping the 50:50 ownership with UPRVUNL intact and reinforcing NTPC’s capacity expansion strategy in conventional power. The cash-funded commitments, expected to be executed through a rights issue in MUNPL by 2029-30, signal continued capital allocation to both thermal and storage assets, with implications for NTPC’s long-term generation mix and regional power supply in Uttar Pradesh.
