1 GW projects commissioning in a year timeframe, says Asolkar
Oriano Clean Energy Pvt Ltd has commissioned a 112 MWp DC / 80 MW AC ground-mounted solar power project for Hexa Climate Solutions Private Limited in Jam, Wardha district, Maharashtra.
The plant achieved its Commercial Operation Date (COD) on 3rd June 2026, with the 132 kV Pooling substation commissioned on 4th December 2025 with all related approval, demonstrating Oriano’s end-to-end execution capability across generation assets and transmission infrastructure.
The project installed over a spread of approximately 300 acres with fixed-tilt mounting structures, with 300 kW string inverters. Oriano executed this project as turnkey EPC contract including PSS and Approvals along with 2 Year O&M contract, making it one of the significant renewable assets catering to Maharashtra’s C&I segment commissioned in the Vidarbha region.
The evacuation infrastructure executed by Oriano, comprises a 1.9 km, 33 kV DC line and a 132 kV pooling substation with 4 bays — including 2 power transformers, 1 bus coupler, and 1 line bay — commissioned on 4th December 2025, enabling seamless grid integration.
The plant is expected to generate approximately 196 million units (MUs) of clean electricity annually, offsetting an estimated 1,40,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions per year. This is equivalent to powering over 160,000 Indian households with renewable energy.
“The successful commissioning of the Wardha project is a testament to Oriano’s execution discipline and the depth of our EPC capabilities. Delivering a 112 MWp plant with complex transmission infrastructure — including a 132 kV pooling substation — in timely manner, in parallel with our broader project portfolio, reflects the strength of our engineering and project management teams. We are proud to partner with Hexa Climate Solutions in their clean energy journey and remain committed to advancing India’s renewable energy targets with speed, quality, and reliability.
