Accounting for assets sold, the company's revenue generating capacity stands at 9.52 GW as on March 31, 2024, the company said in a statement.
The company added 1,174 MW of solar and 768 MW of wind energy during FY24.

ReNew, among the largest clean energy companies globally, announced on Wednesday that it has completed construction of 1.94 GW of RE assets in FY24, taking the cumulative capacity set up by the company to over 10 GW, the statement said.
In FY24, ReNew contributed about 10 per cent of the country's total solar and wind energy generation.
The company has India's largest wind portfolio of 4.7 GW, representing 10.5 per cent of India's total wind energy capacity, it stated.
In 2023-24, ReNew won auctions to supply 4.8 GW (PPA) RE capacity, accounting for 10.1 per cent of the total capacity for which tenders were concluded during the year.

The company is among the top-10 renewable energy companies globally (ex-China), thanks to its balanced portfolio of solar and wind energy.
It has also achieved backward integration through the manufacturing of solar modules and cells.
