The company did not give separate values for the two orders. Its Global Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Chandra Kishore Thakur, said the wins pointed to steady demand for its work. "Together, these orders reinforce the momentum in our business and the confidence customers place in our capabilities," he said.

A new customer in Rajasthan

The Rajasthan order comes from a new customer, which SWREL described as a leading independent power producer (IPP) in India. The contract covers the balance of system (BOS) package for the 534.3 MWp project.

A repeat customer in South Africa

The South African order also comes from a repeat customer, which the company described as a leading renewable energy project developer based in the Middle East. Each of the two BESS projects has 308 MWh of storage capacity. SWREL will deliver them as a turnkey engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) wrap project. According to the company, this is the second-largest utility-scale BESS project it has taken on.
