Macquarie’s Blueleaf to invest $400M in Jakson Green’s 1 GW solar push in Rajasthan

Macquarie’s Blueleaf to invest $400M in Jakson Green’s 1 GW solar push in Rajasthan

Blueleaf Energy, a renewable energy platform operating under the ownership of a Macquarie Asset Management managed fund, has revealed a substantial investment plan within India’s renewable energy sector. 

The company said that it has committed to injecting $400 million into the development of 1 gigawatt (GW) of solar projects undertaken by Jakson Green, an Indian energy firm. 

Solar project in Rajasthan

These ambitious solar projects are slated to be constructed in the northwestern state of Rajasthan, renowned for its abundant solar resources.

This significant investment by Blueleaf Energy underscores the growing confidence of international investors in India’s burgeoning renewable energy market. 

The partnership between Blueleaf Energy and Jakson Green is poised to accelerate the deployment of solar power in Rajasthan, contributing to India’s ambitious renewable energy targets and its broader commitment to sustainable development.

The investment will be allocated across three distinct solar projects, with anticipated commissioning dates scheduled throughout 2025 and 2026. 

The financial backing for these projects will be secured through a diversified strategy, combining both debt and equity financing, as jointly announced by the participating companies.

These projects have secured 25-year power purchase agreements (PPAs) through competitive bidding with RUVNL, SECI, and NHPC, the company added in a press release.

India’s ambitious goal

India’s ambitious goal to achieve 500 GW of non-fossil fuel energy capacity by 2030 has spurred a significant surge of interest in the country’s renewable energy assets. 

This heightened attention is underscored by the fact that India’s current non-fossil fuel capacity stands at approximately 162 GW, leaving a substantial gap to bridge within the next few years. 

Furthermore, this ambitious target highlights the shortfall in India’s previous pledge to add 175 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2022, a goal that remains unfulfilled.

This renewed focus on renewable energy assets is driven by a confluence of factors, including supportive government policies, declining costs of renewable energy technologies, and increasing awareness of the environmental and economic benefits of clean energy. 

Investors, both domestic and international, are recognising the immense potential of India’s renewable energy market and are actively seeking opportunities to invest in solar, wind, and other forms of clean energy projects.

The government’s commitment to achieving its renewable energy targets is evident in a range of policy measures, including financial incentives, tax breaks, and streamlined regulatory processes. 

Attracting investments

These measures are designed to attract investment and accelerate the deployment of renewable energy projects across the country. 

Additionally, the falling costs of solar panels, wind turbines, and energy storage technologies are making renewable energy increasingly competitive with conventional fossil fuels, further enhancing its attractiveness to investors.

As India continues its transition towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future, the renewable energy sector is poised for exponential growth. 

Meanwhile, Indian billionaire Sajjan Jindal’s JSW Energy acquired the subsidiaries of renewable energy platform O2 Power for $1.47 billion in December.

Jakson Green and Blueleaf Energy have also announced their target of installing over 5 GW of renewable energy capacity in India by 2030.

Blueleaf Energy, headquartered in Singapore, has over 7 GW of solar, wind, and storage projects in its development pipeline. Jakson Green has over 1 GW of renewable energy assets currently under development.
