Our areas of expertise
Solar power
Since 2011, Aditya Birla Renewables has built a sturdy pipeline of solar power projects in nine states. Using next-generation technologies, we harness the power of the sun to generate a dependable source of clean, affordable energy for our customers.
We use high-efficiency solar cells as well as bifacial modules, which significantly maximise the amount of sunlight that can be absorbed by the system. The modules are mounted on artificial intelligence-guided trackers that constantly follow the sun's movements for maximum efficiency under different climatic conditions.
Wind energy
India has the world’s fourth-highest installed wind energy capacity. Given the vast scope to tap the potential of wind-based electricity, it is a vital focus area for Aditya Birla Renewables.
We are currently evaluating sites across India that are best suited for wind energy generation. In addition to acquiring these land parcels, we will also tie up with wind energy equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to build our capabilities in this domain.
Solar-wind hybrid power
Aditya Birla Renewables is setting up solar-wind hybrid power projects in Gujarat. These hybrid projects harness the complementary strengths of the sun and the wind.
During the day, the solar systems generate power, and in the evening and night hours, wind energy generation picks up. In this way, our hybrid power systems harness both energy sources smartly to provide an uninterrupted stream of electricity.
We also use advanced energy modelling techniques to ensure the best split between solar and wind energy and thus, are able to offer the best-possible LCOE to customers.
Floating solar power
Leveraging our considerable strengths in solar energy, Aditya Birla Renewables has ventured into the floating solar segment with our first such project in Madhya Pradesh.
Floating solar systems are installed on the surfaces of water bodies like lakes or reservoirs, where they absorb the sun's energy and turn it into electricity. Compared to terrestrial solar plants, floating solar systems don't require large tracts of contiguous land. Floating solar modules also reduce surface water losses through evaporation, making them ideal for hot or water-stressed regions.
Battery storage solutions
Battery technology is rapidly evolving worldwide. Aditya Birla Renewables is also leveraging this exciting new technology in our first such project for metals giant Hindalco.
Battery storage tackles one of the biggest challenges in the renewables sector – the challenge of generating ‘dispatchable electricity’, or electricity that can be stored and transmitted according to the demands of the buyer.
By doubling down on this technology, we are steadily moving closer to the promise of ‘round-the-clock’ renewable power supply to our customers.
Futuristic technologies
In addition to the above offerings, Aditya Birla Renewables is also focused on high-potential technologies like green hydrogen and green ammonia.
