• 5,230 MW largest integrated renewable energy storage project at Kurnool, AP
  • RE storage capacity of 10,800 MWh per day, which can integrate 6 GW of wind and solar capacity
  • Project investment of over US$3.0 billion towards pumped storage, solar & wind capacity
  • 15 million tonnes of CO2 avoided annually, equivalent to emissions from 3 million cars

Shri Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, performed the ‘first concrete pour ceremony’ of the world’s largest Integrated Renewable Energy Storage Project (IRESP); being implemented by Greenko Group, at Kurnool District, AP. The 5,230 MW Integrated Renewable Energy Storage Project will play a pivotal role in India attaining energy security and enable global energy transition.

This is a first of its kind single location energy storage project with wind and solar capacities. This project is being implemented with an investment of over US$3.0 billion comprising Pumped Storage (10,800 MWh of daily storage), Solar (3000 MW) and Wind (550 MW).
