New Delhi: NLC India Limited (NLCIL), a Navratna Central Public Sector Enterprise under the Ministry of Coal, has successfully commissioned the first phase of its 300 MW solar power project at Barsingsar in Bikaner, Rajasthan.

Advancing Renewable Energy Goals

In a filing to the stock exchanges, NLCIL announced that 52.83 MW capacity has been declared commercially operational. The declaration follows the commissioning certificate issued by Rajasthan Renewable Energy Corporation Limited (RRECL) on 26 August 2025.

The project forms part of NLC India’s broader renewable energy expansion strategy, which aims to achieve over 6 GW of renewable capacity in the coming years.
