Torrent Green Energy (Torrent Power) won Solar Energy Corporation of India’s auction to set up 600 MW interstate transmission system-connected wind power projects under Tranche XVIII. Torrent Power has won 300 MW at a tariff of ₹3.97 (~$0.046)/kWh. The tender was floated in March 2025 for 400 MW, which was later increased to 600 MW. Out of the total 600 MW capacity that was tendered, only 300 MW was awarded because the total eligible bids received were significantly lower than the floated capacity.
