The Solar Energy Corporation of India Limited (SECI) has finalised plans with the Government of Andhra Pradesh for a 1200 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) and a 50 MW hybrid solar project.
The government orders for both projects were formally exchanged during the energy session of the Andhra Pradesh Partnership Summit 2025 in Visakhapatnam. The projects will be developed under the capital expenditure model, with SECI taking on full investment responsibility. The BESS facility will be located at Nandyal. The Ministry of Power had designated SECI as the implementing agency for the 1200 MWh BESS under market-based operations.
