Juniper Green Energy has raised an investment of $350 million from AT Capital Group and Vitol. The decision to increase this investment comes two years after the initial commitment of $200 million from the two companies, demonstrating their confidence in the renewable energy power producer's growth trajectory and capabilities.
The Delhi-based operator of solar, wind and hybrid power projects firm has solidified its position as a key player in the Indian renewable energy sector. The firm has an operational portfolio of nearly 800 megawatts (MW) with an under-construction capacity of 435 MW and a development pipeline of more than 3 GW across solar, wind, and hybrid power projects.

"Their impressive project pipeline, combined with their proficiency in EPC and O and M services, aligns seamlessly with our vision for a sustainable and greener future."
Mike Muller, head of Vitol Asia, added: "Vitol is committed to investing in sustainable energy solutions worldwide. We are pleased to support Juniper Green Energy’s ambitions to deliver a growing renewable power portfolio at a time of increasing demand for power.”
