Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has carved out a separate business vertical for Renewable EPC out of its Power Transmission & Distribution business, within its Infrastructure Projects segment, effective September 1, 2024.
Clean energy transition has accelerated in recent years with decarbonized electricity being central to the fight against climate change. The rapid technology development in renewable generation has facilitated this trend. Renewable penetration, particularly in solar and wind generation, is set to grow in the global mix. New drivers of electricity demand growth are emerging with stringent reliability and power quality requirements. The spatial and temporal variability of renewable energy sources necessitate a hybrid approach of combining different sources and addition of energy storage devices, so that the supply is dispatchable on demand, any time of the day, throughout the year. In addition to energy-only markets, innovative market structures like capacity market and flexibility market are set to evolve.
There is a strong momentum in India’s pursuit of promoting renewable energy especially towards increasing the share of non-fossil fuels-based electricity. India sees green jobs and renewable growth as important aspects of achieving the visionary Viksit Bharat and equitable climate justice for the world. Renewable Energy Implementing Agencies have chalked out clear capacity addition trajectories and several schemes including Green Energy Corridors are being implemented.
In this backdrop, to enhance management visibility and to ensure seamless integration of resources and capabilities, L&T has created the Renewable EPC business, an addition to its construction verticals.
L&T is an Indian multinational engaged in technology, engineering, construction, manufacturing and financial services.
