BrightNight, a leading renewable energy company, announced the successful commissioning of the first phase of its 115 MW hybrid renewable power project in Maharashtra. This marks a significant step in the company’s global mission to decarbonize energy, as it delivers its first energy into the Indian power grid.
The Optima Maharashtra project, located in Dharashiv, Southern Maharashtra, spans approximately 14,000 acres and integrates both wind and solar technologies.
