UltraTech Cement Surpasses 2 GW Green Energy Capacity

UltraTech Cement has become the first Indian cement company to exceed 2 gigawatts (GW) of green energy capacity for captive use. This milestone was achieved by commissioning 116.55 MW of wind capacity and 10 MW of Waste Heat Recovery System (WHRS) capacity. The company's total green energy capacity now stands at 2,024 MW, comprising 1,580 MW of renewable energy and 444 MW of WHRS. This green energy meets approximately 48% of UltraTech's power requirements, reducing its exposure to fossil fuel price volatility and supply constraints. UltraTech aims to increase green energy's share in its power mix to 85% by 2030 and 100% by 2050.
