Why it matters

FDRE stands for Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy — projects that pair renewable generation with storage so power can be supplied on a firm schedule. Battery storage lets the project store energy and release it when required under the agreement.

Commissioning followed by a commercial operation date means the capacity can begin supplying power under the long-term PPA, which is the point at which revenue from that capacity typically begins.

This update continues an earlier intimation dated September 17, 2026, and represents progress on a phased build-out, with the remaining portion of the 300 MW/1200 MWh discharge capacity still to be commissioned.
