Sun and wind, working the same shift: a 150-megawatt hybrid plant switches on in Gujarat

In Gujarat, India, Juniper Green Energy has finished switching on a 150-megawatt plant that pairs wind turbines with solar panels under a single power deal — the final 5-megawatt wind turbine came online today, confirmed by state energy officials. Hybrid plants like this smooth out clean power: sunshine peaks during the day, while wind often picks up at other hours. With this plant running, the company's operating clean-energy capacity stands at about 2,745 megawatts, alongside battery storage to save power for later.
