ANDRITZ Receives Contract from Adani Green Energy for 1500 MW PSH Project

India: International technology group ANDRITZ has been awarded a contract by Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) for the 1500 MW Tarali Pumped Storage Hydro (TPSH) project, one of the largest pumped storage hydro projects in India.

Adani Green Energy, India’s largest renewable energy company and a leading global player, has commissioned ANDRITZ to supply pump turbines, motor generators, and related electromechanical equipment for the new Tarali pumped storage plant located in the Satara district of Maharashtra.

Now, the contract value has not been disclosed. India is aggressively expanding its pumped storage capacity to balance the increasing share of variable renewable energy sources like solar and wind in its energy mix. AGEL’s Tarali TPSH project is expected to make a significant contribution to this expansion.

This marks the second contract awarded to ANDRITZ by AGEL, following the 500 MW Chitravathi pumped storage hydro project order in 2023.

According to sources, ANDRITZ’s scope of supply for Tarali includes the design, manufacture, installation, testing, and commissioning of the pumped storage units along with associated auxiliaries. The project will be executed utilizing ANDRITZ’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in India, supported by its global network.

The repeat order from AGEL underscores ANDRITZ’s strong presence in the Indian hydropower market and its expertise in delivering pumped storage solutions that are vital for grid stability and the integration of variable renewable energy. ANDRITZ is currently involved in the implementation of four new pumped storage plants in India.
