Tata Power

In the early 1900s, India's industrial dreams flickered to life in the far-out hinterland of rural Maharashtra. Visionary seer Jamsetji Tata, during one of his visits to the Western Ghats, witnessed natural conduits of rainwater in the hills. It was then that, amidst the raw power of nature, the spark for Tata Power ignited. He saw in those cascading waterfalls a potential far greater than mere aesthetics—a chance to harness the energy of hydroelectricity to power schools, factories, homes, and hospitals in the city of Mumbai.

In 1997, we aquired a 67.5 MW coal-based power plant in Jharkhand, named the Jojobera plant.

In 2000, Tata Power Company Limited was formed with the amalgamation of Tata Hydro-Electric Co. Ltd., Andhra Valley Power Supply Co. Ltd., and Tata Power Co. Ltd. Additionally, in the same year, as Jojobera continued to grow, a second unit of 120 MW was commissioned to meet the increasing demand from Tata Steel. As a result, four more units of 120 MW were set up at Jojobera in the years 2000, 2001, 2005, and 2010, respectively.

Since then there has been no looking back. With our growth, we aim to grow India into a State that is synonymous with Sustainable Growth and Efficient in delivering power to its growing economy. We will continue to write new stories. One where technology empowers, sustainability thrives, and the future gleams with endless possibilities.
