Avaada Group recently signed a memorandum of understanding with the Maharashtra government to develop two large-scale pumped storage hydro projects Pawana Falyan (2,400 MW) and Sirsala (1,200 MW) with a total proposed investment of INR 15,100 crore. These projects are expected to generate over 3,800 direct jobs and bolster the state's renewable energy infrastructure by ensuring reliable, round-the-clock power supply. The move aligns with Maharashtra's vision to become India's clean energy hub and supports national goals of energy security and sustainability through grid stability and seamless renewable integration.
Avaada Group has signed a preliminary agreement with the Maharashtra government for the development of two pumped storage hydroelectric projects, which together will have an installed capacity of 3,600 MW. The pact, formalised earlier this week, includes the 2,400 MW Pawana Falyan project and the 1,200 MW Sirsala project, with a projected total investment of INR 15,100 crore. Advertisement
According to Avaada, these initiatives are set to generate over 3,800 direct employment opportunities in the region. The company highlighted that pumped storage systems would be instrumental in reinforcing Maharashtra's energy security by offering round-the-clock renewable power, aiding in grid stability, and facilitating the integration of clean energy into the state's power infrastructure.
The Maharashtra government also reiterated its dedication to sustainable development. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis conveyed that the state is determined to emerge as India's Green Energy Hub. He stressed the importance of turning such MoUs into actionable outcomes, assuring full governmental support to fast-track the implementation of such transformative energy projects.
Maharashtra has been increasingly active in clean energy development, having previously partnered with multiple private players in the solar and wind sectors. These new hydro storage projects add to the state's diversified approach to energy transition, balancing intermittent renewables with storage-backed solutions.
As India intensifies its renewable energy commitments, large-scale storage solutions like these become crucial for grid dependability and decarbonisation. With state-level backing and private sector innovation converging, Maharashtra could position itself as a blueprint for other regions aiming to achieve both economic development and environmental stewardship through clean energy investments.
