Sunsure energises 82.5-MWp solar park, expands open-access footprint in India

• Sunsure brought online an 82.5-MWp solar park, lifting its Indian open-access portfolio to about 260-MWp and sharpening its corporate PPA offering.

Sunsure Energy has switched on an 82.5-MWp solar park, adding another block of daytime power to India’s open-access market and lifting the company’s portfolio in the state to roughly 260-MWp. The project is built for corporate consumers that buy electricity directly from independent producers, bypassing standard utility tariffs and, increasingly, pairing supply with sustainability goals.

Technically, the plant follows the playbook that has become standard for bankable utility PV in India: high-efficiency, bifacial modules on single-axis trackers; a DC/AC ratio tuned for higher annual yield rather than headline peaks; and plant-level controls configured for voltage support, fault ride-through and rapid curtailment response in line with state grid codes. Dust-aware O&M—scheduled cleaning, targeted vegetation management, and predictive analytics—will be key to hitting net capacity-factor targets through hot, windy seasons.

Commercially, open-access solar continues to appeal to energy-intensive manufacturers and service providers that want price visibility and credible decarbonisation. Corporate PPAs can be structured with flexible tenors and step-downs, and many buyers are layering in renewable energy certificates to match residual consumption. With dynamic tariffs on the horizon, co-located storage is increasingly attractive: two-to-four-hour batteries can shift part of the mid-afternoon output into evening peaks and provide fast response services, enhancing returns while smoothing the host grid’s net-load ramp.

Sunsure’s expansion also reflects a maturing interconnection strategy. Sites near substations and along reinforced corridors face fewer delays and curtailment risks; standardized designs and repeat vendors shorten procurement cycles for long-lead transformers and protection gear—still the pacing items on many Indian schedules. For local communities, the project brings construction jobs, supply purchases, and long-term municipal revenues, alongside biodiversity measures and drainage controls now common in site permits.

With this commissioning, Sunsure has another repeatable asset on the ground and a stronger platform for signing additional corporate offtakers—turning policy tailwinds and customer demand into bankable, grid-friendly megawatts.
