Overview

Greenko, one of India’s largest Renewable Energy IPPs, ventured into Solar Power Development in 2016 with acquisition of SunEdison India’s portfolio. Gensol’s flexibility to place key resources at Greenko’s offices for a long time and immediate deployment led to Gensol’s appointment for Due Diligence before acquisition and for detailed engineering & Project Management during construction on these projects.

Greenko till 2015 had majority of its portfolio in wind.
