Project proposals, presented by the Chief Project Manager of the Renewable Energy Nodal Agency (RENA), were reviewed and approved after detailed examination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the approved projects is a 69.5 MW solar park by Prozeal Green Energy Limited at Biramaharajpur in Subarnapur district. INOX Solar Limited received clearance for a 49.5 MW solar project at Telkoi in Keonjhar district, while Mahanadi Coalfields Limited (MCL) secured approval for a 10 MW solar installation at Lakhanpur in Jharsuguda. Additionally, NLC India Renewables Limited will set up a wind power project at Papadahandi in Nabarangpur district. Combined, these account for 128.5 MW of solar and 49.5 MW of wind energy capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;With the latest approvals, the total renewable energy capacity cleared by the SWC has reached 1,844.86 MW, backed by cumulative investment commitments of Rs 12,599.79 crore. This milestone reflects the state\u2019s accelerating transition to clean energy and its emphasis on ease of doing business in the green sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Officials highlighted that these projects support Odisha\u2019s Renewable Purchase Obligations (RPOs) and contribute to India\u2019s broader climate goals. They are also expected to generate employment and improve infrastructure in the respective districts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The energy department reaffirmed its commitment to facilitating green investments and ensuring swift project approvals through effective coordination among all stakeholders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Sukant Mohanty Bhubaneswar, July 26: Odisha has
