What Happened ?
NTPC Green Energy Limited informed stock exchanges that the third tranche of 50 MW solar capacity has been declared under commercial operation as part of the 300 MW solar component within the 200 MW Renewable Energy Round The Clock (RTC) project located in Rajasthan.
The project is being executed by Project Sixteen Renewable Power Private Limited, a step-down subsidiary of ONGC NTPC Green Private Limited, which is a joint venture associated with NTPC Green Energy Limited.
Following this declaration, the cumulative commissioned capacity under the solar component has reached 250 MW out of the planned 300 MW.
Key Details

Risk Analysis
Summary:
- The project has entered commercial operation, significantly reducing execution-related risks for the commissioned capacity. However, the remaining capacity under the broader project still needs to be commissioned.
Key Risks:
- Remaining 50 MW capacity of the 300 MW solar component is yet to be commissioned.
- Generation performance will depend on solar resource availability and plant efficiency.
- Renewable projects remain exposed to transmission and grid integration risks.
- Regulatory and power offtake compliance requirements continue through the operating lifecycle.
Worst Case Scenario:
- Any delay in commissioning the balance project capacity or operational underperformance could postpone the realization of the full expected capacity benefits.
Risk Level: Low
