THDC India inks deal for 184 MW of power from pumped storage plant

This will support Gujarat’s peak-hour power demand.

THDC India Limited has signed an agreement with the state of Gujarat and Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited for the supply of 184.08 megawatts of power from Tehri Pumped Storage Plant in Uttarakhand.

In a statement, THDC India said the memorandum of understanding (MoU) and power purchase agreement (PPA) will support Gujarat’s peak-hour power demand and enable the large-scale integration of renewable energy into the grid.

“The MoU and PPA also align closely with the Government of India’s vision of promoting pumped storage technology as a reliable solution for flexible generation and grid balancing, particularly in the face of rising renewable penetration and variable demand patterns,” the company said.
