We are utilizing agricultural waste as fuel to produce renewable power round the clock. We have the largest capacity of waste-to-energy generation. Already making strides in the renewable energy space, we aim to escalate our renewable capacity to 5 GW within the next 4-5 years by adding 100MW of new biomass and 600MW of new solar capacity annually. This ambitious endeavor aligns with the Government of India's vision to achieve 500 GW capacity from renewable energy sources by 2030. The SAEL Group is set to embark on a journey that combines organic and inorganic strategies, leveraging marquee investors and partners to realize our vision. At the forefront of this effort is SAEL Industries, the pivotal entity responsible for raising growth capital across various business segments. In addition to its overarching role, SAEL Industries is actively involved in Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) for the Group's upcoming renewable projects. Furthermore, it takes charge of the Operation and Maintenance (O&M) activities for both existing commissioned projects and those on the horizon.
