Steel Guru – EDEN Renewables India Increases Portfolio with New Solar Photovoltaic Power Plants

EDF Renewables and Total Eren, two world leaders in renewable energy, announced that EDEN Renewables India, their equally owned joint venture dedicated to the Indian solar photovoltaic market, has been awarded three solar photovoltaic projects for a total of 1,350 MWp each in Rajasthan, Northern India. EDEN Renewables has established itself amongst the leaders in the Indian market, with a portfolio of capacities under development, under construction and operational totaling more than 2,200 MWp spread over the states of Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.

Between April and July 2020, EDEN Renewables India has won:

two 450 MWp[1] solar PV projects during the last tenders organized by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECIVIII and SECI IX)
one 450 MWp1 solar PV project during the last tender organized by the National Hydro Power Corporation (NHPC), for which a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) has been signed with NHPC at the end of August 2020

With planned production of more than 2,300 GWh per year, these solar PV plants will generate the energy required to meet the annual electricity needs of nearly 2 million people in India.

Constructions are due to start during the first semester of 2021 and commissioning are expected towards the beginning of 2022.

These recent successes follow the signature last year by EDEN Renewables India of 25-year long term PPAs for four solar power projects totaling 716 MWp of installed capacities in Northern India. Among them, “SECI III” (450 MWp) entered into construction phase in Rajasthan, in April 2020, with commissioning expected towards the first semester of 2021.

EDEN Renewables India has been developing, building and operating solar projects in India since 2016. Through their local presence with a team of experts headquartered in New Delhi, EDF Renewables and Total Eren already operate four solar PV power plants in India.

GreenUnivers – L’Inde ne confine pas les appels d’offres solaires, Eden Re en profite

Eden Renewables, ce mariage entre Total-Eren et EDF Re pour grandir en Inde a décroché de gros contrats publics ces derniers mois. En l’occurrence, trois centrales solaires de 450 MW chacune à construire d’ici 2022 et attribuées par la Solar Energy Corporation of India et la National Hydro Power Corporation (NHPC), avec qui un contrat de vente d’électricité de 25 ans a été signé fin août.

Concentrée sur le segment « utility scale* », Eden Re ne dispose pour l’instant que de 207 MW de centrales

solaires en exploitation et de 450 MW en construction.

Mais son réservoir commence à bien se remplir avec ces succès au Rajasthan. La coentreprise de Total-Eren et EDF Re créée en 2016 compte en tout 1 600 MW à mettre en service d’ici 2022, avec à l’arrivée un parc en production de 2,2 GW ; l’année prochaine devrait donc être trépidante. Mais il faut tenir compte de [restrict- content]la situation sanitaire du pays, problématique et avec des conséquences lourdes sur les déplacements. Dans le communiqué d’Eden Re, Fabienne Demol, responsable du développement de Total-Eren, adresse ses félicitations à ses équipes “pour cette réussite qui survient malgré la crise du Covid–19.“

Bons scores européens

En revanche, le confinement dû au coronavirus n’a ralenti ni les appels d’offres publics, ni les volumes attribués. Dans le photovoltaïque, comme l’a calculé Bloomberg, 6,2 GW de projets ont été accordés depuis le 25 mars et 8,2 GW depuis le 1er janvier. Trois compétiteurs sortent du lot : SB Energy (Soft Bank), Eden Re justement et ReNew Power (Goldman Sachs). Hormis Eden Re, deux acteurs européens se distinguent aussi en 2020 : Enel et l’espagnol Solarpack. Adani, champion l’année dernière, n’a pas concouru.

Selon une porte-parole d’Eden Re qui cite un rapport de Bridge to India**, le promoteur se classe parmi les 15 premiers développeurs du marché solaire et éolien indien, exploitation et pipeline confondus.

Le pays vise une capacité installée en électricité renouvelable de 175 GW en 2022. Selon Bridge to India, 69 GW étaient en service au 30 juin dernier, mais on note que sur 12 mois, le rythme des raccordements a baissé de 10%, pour descendre à 6,2 GW. Coté acteurs, en 2019, le marché solaire était dominé par ReNew Power sur les centrales photovoltaïques au sol mises en service en 2019 et par Tata Power Solar sur le créneau des toitures, d’après les calculs de Mercom India Research.

La production électrique en Inde a augmenté de 6% par an moyenne entre 2007 et 2017 (soit +86% depuis 2007), met en évidence le rapport de l’AIE consacré début 2020 au sous-continent. Le charbon fournit les trois quarts de la nouvelle capacité ; il est en conséquence passé de 65% à 74% du mix. La part du gaz s’est effondrée, de même que celle de l’hydroélectricité. Le solde est désormais occupé par les nouvelles énergies renouvelables – solaire, éolien, biomasse – et un peu par le nucléaire.

Saur Energy International – EDEN Renewables India Adds 1.35 GW of new Solar Plants to its Portfolio

EDEN Renewables India, the equally owned JV of Total and EDF RE has been awarded three solar projects for a total of 1.35 GW in Rajasthan, India.

EDF Renewables and Total Eren, two world leaders in renewable energy, have announced that EDEN Renewables India, their equally owned joint venture dedicated to the Indian solar PV market, has been awarded three solar projects for a total of 1,350 MWp (1.35 GW) in Rajasthan, India.

EDEN Renewables has established itself amongst the leaders in the Indian market, with a portfolio of capacities under development, under construction and operational totaling more than 2,200 MWp spread over the states of Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.

Between April and July 2020, EDEN Renewables India has won:

two 450 MWp solar PV projects during the last tenders organised by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI VIII and SECI IX) ;
one 450 MWp solar PV project during the last tender organised by the National Hydro Power Corporation (NHPC), for which a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) has been signed with NHPC at the end of August 2020.

With the planned production of more than 2,300 GWh per year, these solar PV plants will generate the energy required to meet the annual electricity needs of nearly 2 million people in India.

Constructions are due to start during the first semester of 2021 and commissioning is expected towards the beginning of 2022.

Fabienne Demol, Executive Vice President – Global Head of Business Development of Total Eren, said “we are very glad to have reached a new milestone with these three solar power plants, building upon the successful signature of four long-term PPAs last year. I would like to congratulate our teams for this achievement despite the current COVID–19 situation. Looking ahead, I am excited to be working on these solar projects with our partner EDF Renewables, through our joint subsidiary EDEN Renewables India, which plays a key role in achieving our local ambitions. Together, we are determined to provide electricity which is both sustainable and low carbon, in line with the Indian Government’s objective to increase the part of renewables in India”.

These recent successes follow the signature last year by EDEN Renewables India of 25-year long term PPAs for four solar power projects totaling 716 MWp2 of installed capacities in Northern India. Among them, “SECI III” (450 MWp) entered into the construction phase in Rajasthan, in April 2020, with commissioning expected towards the first semester of 2021.

Frédéric Belloy, Executive Vice President International Operations at EDF Renewables, said “we are pleased to have been awarded 1,350 MWp of additional solar projects with EDEN Renewables India. These recent successes will reinforce very significantly the footprint of our joint venture with our partner Total Eren. It also

highlights the remarkable expertise and track record in solar power activities achieved by EDEN Renewables India. These landmark projects fit perfectly with the EDF Group’s Cap 2030 strategy of doubling its renewable energy net capacity in operation from 28 GW to 50 GW between 2015 and 2030 worldwide. Through our renewable energy developments, we are pleased to contribute to the Indian government’s goal of reaching 220 GW of non-fossil generation by 2022.”
