Swaraj Tractors, a division of the Mahindra Group, has announced its collaboration with Mahindra Susten, the Group’s clean-tech arm, to establish a 26 MW solar power plant in Bathinda district, Punjab, for self-consumption.

The solar plant developed by Mahindra Susten will purportedly be Punjab’s largest solar group captive project. It will supply clean energy to four Swaraj Tractor manufacturing facilities located in Mohali and Dera Bassi, scaling up Swaraj Tractors renewable energy share to up to 50%.

The project is expected to generate around 60 million kWh of renewable energy annually, contributing to the abatement of around 54,600 tonnes of CO2 emissions.

Hemant Sikka, president, Farm Equipment Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, stated, “With this groundbreaking solar project, we are taking a pioneering step in introducing green energy at such a large scale in tractor manufacturing for the first time in India. The initiative aligns perfectly with our vision of Transforming Farming and Enriching Lives, while advancing toward a sustainable future.”

Gaganjot Singh, CEO, Swaraj Division, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, remarked, “By leveraging Mahindra Susten’s expertise, we are confident of achieving our renewable energy goals and making a significant contribution to Punjab’s evolving energy landscape.”

The project also marks Mahindra Susten’s entry into Punjab, further strengthening its business footprint as a private-sector renewable power producer.

Deepak Thakur, managing director and CEO, Mahindra Susten, said, “At Mahindra Susten, our vision is to deliver clean and efficient energy solutions to the commercial and industrial (C&I) sector and we are doing so by developing bespoke power plants tailored to optimally serve each C&I client requirements. We are proud to partner with Swaraj Tractors in their sustainability journey and to bring our renewable energy expertise to Punjab.”
