TP Renewable Microgrid, a whole-owned subsidiary of Tata Power, uses a shared value creation approach for community engagement. This creates an ecosystem enabling local communities to use the benefits of microgrids for overall socio-economic development, amplifying India’s efforts to provide reliable and clean power to rural communities currently dependent on fossil-based power.

Through the programme, company representatives engage with social influencers, governments, local communities, village-level entrepreneurs, farmers and civil society groups to understand their needs. Solutions are designed in collaboration with technology innovators, skill development partners, philanthropic organizations, financial institutions and other stakeholders to meet local communities’ needs. This enables TP Renewable Microgrid to create a win-win situation: it can launch numerous initiatives to provide economic, environmental and social benefits to local communities, while ensuring that projects are smoothly installed, commissioned, operated and maintained.

TP Renewable Microgrid has commissioned renewable microgrids in 200 villages in northwest India with a consumer base of around 21,000. The microgrids save more than 3 million liters of diesel and reduce more than 8,000 tons of carbon dioxide annually while also impacting nearly 300,000 lives.
