The capacity developed by subsidiary Juniper Green Spark Ten Private Ltd was completed 10 months ahead of schedule, it said, adding that in the first phase, around 36 MWp of solar capacity was commissioned on September 25 last year.
Juniper Green Spark Ten Project has the power purchase agreement (PPA) potential of 133 MWp hybrid capacity, comprising a contracted 108 MWp of solar and an additional 25 MW of installed wind capacity.
