The 25-year PPA, secured at a tariff of Rs 4.38 per unit, marks a milestone for Juniper, propelling its operational and under-construction capacity to 2.5 GW. The project is anticipated to generate 2,179 million units of energy annually, resulting in an offset of approximately 20,41,811 tonnes of CO2 emissions each year.

In addition to its environmental impact, these initiatives are poised to significantly improve energy access for around 4.34 lakh households, fostering community development and bolstering regional sustainability efforts.

Juniper's ambitious plans include the installation of 150 MW of solar power capacity in Gujarat, with the remaining 780 MW set to be established in Rajasthan. This comprehensive approach will integrate solar, wind, and battery technologies to create a hybrid power solution.

The company offers end-to-end internal competencies in Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) and Operations and Maintenance (O&M) services for its renewable energy projects.
