Torrent Power has obtained a letter of award from its 'Distribution Unit' for setting up 150 MW wind solar hybrid project with an investment of ₹1,825 crore. According to a BSE filing, the renewable energy plant will supply power at a cost of ₹3.65 per kWh.
"...the company has received Letter of Award from Torrent Power Limited-Distribution Unit for setting up of 150 MW (RE Power) Grid-Connected Wind Solar Hybrid Projects under Greenshoe option," it stated.

The annual CUF (capacity utilisation factor) will not be less than 50% in any year during the duration of the PPA, and the rated electricity capacity of wind and solar will be in the 2:1 ratio.
To meet the 50% CUF requirement, the company plans to install 245 MW of wind and solar capacity projects against a contracted capacity of 150 MW.
