Tata Power Renewable Energy Supports Clean Transport and Electric Fleets

By Jony Shekhawat | Published Date : January 01, 2026

New solar power from Tata Power will help industries, homes, and electric fleets, including Tata commercial vehicles, move toward cleaner energy.

Tata Power Renewable Energy has just started its biggest solar project so far for SJVN in Rajasthan. Spread across Bikaner, this 1 GW plant uses Indian-made solar panels and is expected to produce enough clean electricity to power homes, industries and even help run Tata commercial vehicles and dumpers. This project not only reduces carbon emissions but also supports India’s push for cleaner energy and greener transport options.

Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited has commissioned a 1 GW DCR-compliant solar power project for SJVN Limited. This is the largest solar project delivered by the company so far and also one of the biggest DCR projects commissioned in India. The project uses domestically made solar equipment and supports India’s clean energy push.

Project Located in Rajasthan

The solar project is spread across Bandarwala and Karnisar Bhatiyan areas in the Bikaner district of Rajasthan. Power from this plant will be supplied to multiple states. Rajasthan will receive 500 MW, Jammu and Kashmir will get 300 MW and Uttarakhand will receive 200 MW of power from this project.

Made With Indian Solar Modules

Around 2.4 million solar modules used in the project were manufactured at TP Solar Limited’s plant in Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu. The plant uses DCR-compliant cells and mono bifacial modules. High-capacity inverters are installed to ensure smooth operation even in extreme weather, from very high summer heat to cold winter conditions.

Strong Power Output and Lower Emissions

This solar project is started with 2,454.84 million units of electricity production in its first year. Tata Power claims and assures the minimization of CO2, around 1.74 million tonnes every year. The electricity will be used to power homes, industries and even support electric trucks across several states.

Local Jobs and Economic Support

The project also helped local communities during construction. More than 300 workers were employed at different stages, and over 25 local vendors were involved in supply of Tata trucks and execution work. Such large renewable projects help improve local income and skill development.

Growing Clean Energy Portfolio

With this project, TPREL’s third-party utility-scale renewable capacity has reached 4.9 GW. Tata Power’s total renewable utility capacity now stands at 11.6 GW, including solar and wind projects under operation and development. Clean energy already forms a large part of the company’s total power portfolio.

Clean Power Supporting Electric Mobility

As clean power generation grows, it also supports electric mobility across India. Renewable energy plays a key role in charging electric fleets used by Tata commercial vehicles in cities and on highways. From Tata trucks and Tata buses to small vehicles like Tata Ace Gold and heavy-duty Tata dumpers, clean electricity helps reduce running cost and emissions in the transport sector. Tata Power has also shared its long-term plan to achieve net-zero emissions by 2045.

Frequently Asked Questions on Commercial Vehicles

Q1. What is the load-carrying capacity of Tata commercial vehicles?

Ans. Tata commercial vehicles vary by model. Tata dumpers can carry 8 to 25 tonnes, while Tata Ace Gold and electric mini trucks usually carry 500–1,200 kg, depending on their design.

Q2. What engine types are available in Tata trucks and buses?

Ans. Tata trucks and buses come with diesel, CNG, and electric powertrains. Electric versions are mainly for city transport and short routes, while diesel and CNG trucks are used for long-distance or heavy-duty transport.

Q3. How many passengers can Tata buses and mini vehicles carry?

Ans. Tata buses can seat 20 to 50 passengers, depending on size. Tata Ace Gold can carry a driver plus 2–3 passengers, while Tata dumpers are mainly for cargo, not passengers.

Q4. Are Tata commercial vehicles suitable for daily business use?

Ans. Yes, Tata trucks, buses, Ace Gold, and dumpers are designed for daily commercial work. They offer strong performance, reliability, and low maintenance costs for transport and delivery operations.
