Global PE firms, domestic giants circle Statkraft's India assets
Mumbai: Global private equity firm Blackstone and Gurugram-based Serentica Renewables are leading the race to acquire the solar assets of Norwegian energy firm Statkraft in India, while Adani Group and JSW Group are in the fray to acquire its hydro power plants, three people said. Serentica, which is backed by PE firm KKR, has also bid for Statkraft's wind assets in India. Statkraft's solar assets in the country are likely to be valued at ₹1,700-1,800 crore and the hydro assets at ₹1,400-1,500 crore, according to the people familiar with the developments. 'The binding bids have been submitted and the seller will proceed with one of the buyers for each category of assets," one of them said. EY Norway is advising Statkraft on the sale. Statkraft India has a total renewable energy portfolio of around 1 GW, including solar energy and hydropower assets. These include a 76 MW operational solar power plant and an additional 75 MW solar power capacity being developed in Tamil Nadu. A 445 MW solar power project in Rajasthan is nearing completion. Statkraft's hydropower assets in the country include a 49% stake in two operating hydropower assets in Himachal Pradesh at Allain Duhangan (192 MW) and Malana (86 MW). Another hydropower plant of 150 MW capacity is under construction in the state at Tidong. The fact that the hydropower assets are joint ventures with LNJ Bhilwara group complicates the deal for potential suitors. A spokesperson for Blackstone declined comment. In an emailed response, a spokesperson for Serentica said, 'We explore opportunities for acquisitions and partnerships on an ongoing basis. We were among the selected bidders for the Statkraft portfolio in April, post which we conducted our diligence. We have submitted our binding offers for Statkraft's wind and solar portfolio". Statkraft, EY, Adani Group, and JSW Group did not reply to emailed queries. Statkraft's India journey The Norwegian group's decision to sell its India assets comes after a steady slide in overall revenue for the group and mounting debt. Statkraft plans to instead focus on other high-potential markets in the Nordics, Europe, and South America to meet its growth targets. Statkraft is the largest renewable energy producer in Europe with an installed capacity of 19.4 GW, of which 12.1 GW is hydropower capacity in Norway. The Norwegian state-owned firm entered the Indian power market through its subsidiary SN Power in 2004, when it acquired 49% of the shares in Malana Power Co. Ltd. Statkraft was the first foreign investor in India's hydropower sector.

Reliance Infrastructure bags NHPC's Rs 4,000-crore solar-battery project
Reliance Infrastructure has received a letter of award (LoA) for a 390 megawatt (Mw) solar power project and 780 megawatt-hour (MWh) battery energy storage system (BESS) from NHPC, the company said. The project is valued at Rs 4,000 crore, according to the industry estimates. Once commissioned, the platform will add 700 megawatt-peak (MWp) of solar DC capacity and 780 MWh of BESS capacity to Reliance Group's portfolio. The winning tariff was discovered at Rs 3.13/kilowatt-hour (kWh). The project is a part of a broader 1,200 MW solar along with 600 MW/2,400 MWh BESS inter-state transmission system (ISTS)-connected tender floated by NHPC, which saw participation from 15 entities, with 14 qualifying for the e-reverse auction. The tender was oversubscribed by nearly four times. With this addition, the combined Reliance Group's clean energy pipeline now stands at over 3 GWp of solar DC capacity and over 3.5 GWhr of BESS capacity, making it India's largest player in the integrated solar and BESS segment, Reliance Infrastructure said. This successful bid underscores Reliance Group's continued progress and commitment to becoming a leading player in India's renewable energy sector. It marks a significant milestone in the Group's strategic vision to transition toward cleaner energy sources and play a pivotal role in shaping the country's sustainable energy future, the company said. Earlier this month, the company won an arbitration award of Rs 526.23 crore along with interest against Aravali Power Company Private Limited (APCPL) in relation to an engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract. On August 8, the company announced that its joint venture subsidiaries BSES Yamuna Power and BSES Rajdhani Power will recover regulatory assets worth Rs 28,483 crore over the next four years.
