In FY24, NTPC successfully added 3,924 MW of new capacity to its portfolio, bringing its cumulative installed capacity to nearly 76 GW. Presently, the group has an operational RE capacity of 3.5 GW, with an extensive pipeline exceeding 20 GW.
By 2032, NTPC is looking to expand its non-fossil based capacity to 45-50 per cent of the company's portfolio which will include 60 GW RE capacity with a total portfolio of 130 GW.
NTPC Ltd is India's largest integrated power utility, contributing as much as 25 per cent of the power requirement of the country.
