Descriptiontext

Noida Power Company Limited (NPCL) is a privately held electricity distribution utility incorporated in 1993 as a joint venture between the RP-Sanjiv Goenka (RPSG) Group and the Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA). NPCL holds an exclusive license from the Uttar Pradesh Government to distribute power across a 335 sq. km licensed area covering Greater Noida, serving over 2 lakh+ customers with a peak load of 761 MW in FY 2025-26 (up from 17 MW in FY 1994-95). Its load mix is industrial-heavy, with large and heavy industries accounting for 49% of energy sales and including multinational manufacturing customers such as Honda Cars, Yamaha Motors, LG Electronics, and STMicroelectronics.

The company operates an advanced distribution platform built around SCADA-enabled automated 33/11 KV substations, GIS-integrated network management, an Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS), and an Outage Management System (OMS). Smart grid applications include Fault Location, Isolation, and Service Restoration (FLISR), self-healing grid logic on 11 KV RMU networks, drone-based infrastructure inspection, IoT battery health monitoring, and a Machine Learning-based Integrated Load Forecasting Module. Customer-facing digital services include an AI-powered chatbot ('Saathi'), a mobile app, WhatsApp services, self meter reading, and prepaid meter recharges with automatic meter reading. Pilot initiatives span blockchain-based P2P energy trading and a Virtual Reality Lab for training.

NPCL generates revenue through regulated tariff-based electricity sales, with rates set by the Uttar Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC) and the most recent tariff order effective 6 December 2025. Revenue mechanics include fixed/demand charges plus energy charges across domestic, commercial, industrial, institutional, and agricultural (private tubewell) consumer categories, with rebates for prepaid meter users (2%), timely payment (1%), and digital self-service adoption. Distribution is exclusively direct to consumers within the licensed area, supplemented by digital self-service portals and physical customer care centres. Adjacent revenue streams are emerging from EV charging (Tilpata plaza with Servotech), rooftop solar net metering (1,781 installations under PM Surya Ghar), and a forthcoming 80 MW / 320 MWh Standalone Battery Energy Storage System.

SolarQuarterNPCL Invites Bids For 300 MW Round-The-Clock Renewable Energy SupplyNoida Power Company Limited invited bids for 300 MW of round-the-clock renewable energy on a build-own-operate basis. Developers can combine solar, wind, and energy storage, with a 25-year power purchase agreement. The tender includes an electronic reverse auction to set the final tariff.The Times of IndiaNoida Sector 53 residents face power woes for 10 days over damaged underground cableA damaged underground cable in Noida Sector 53 has caused power disruptions for nearly 10 days, forcing the electricity department to reroute load to Feeder No 1. The additional burden triggered voltage fluctuations, burnt insulators, and phase failures. The RWA has pressed for repair, and officials said the fault was resolved by late Monday afternoon.SolarQuarterTata Power Renewable Energy Commissions 190.5 MW Solar FDRE Project in RajasthanTata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL) commissioned a 190.5 MW solar Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy project in Kalasar, Rajasthan, integrating battery storage to ensure reliable power supply. The facility will deliver renewable energy to the Haryana Power Purchase Centre, Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited, and Noida Power Company Limited. This addition brings TPREL's total renewable utility capacity to 12.4 GW, supporting India's broader non-fossil fuel targets.Construction WorldG B Nagar Commissions First Rooftop Solar ProjectGautam Budh Nagar has commissioned its first rooftop solar project under the Centre's PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, with a 500 kilowatt peak grid-connected solar plant becoming operational at Arihant Arden Apartment Owners Association in Greater Noida West. Noida Power Company Limited facilitated the installation, provided technical guidance, and secured Rs 8 million in Central Financial Assistance for the society within 30 days. The project is expected to generate 0.6-0.75 million units annually, saving Rs 4-4.5 million per year and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 550-650 tonnes annually, benefiting 1,519 apartment owners.The Times of IndiaNPCL commissions Gautam Budh Nagar’s first high-rise rooftop solar project in Greater Noida, ETEnergyworldNoida Power Company Ltd (NPCL) has commissioned Gautam Budh Nagar's first rooftop solar power project at the Arihant Arden high-rise residential society in Greater Noida West. The 500-kWp grid-connected plant is expected to benefit 1,519 apartment owners by lowering common-area electricity expenses and will generate 6-7.5 lakh units annually, translating into projected savings of ₹40-45 lakh per year. The project received ₹90 lakh as Central Financial Assistance under the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana within 30 days of commissioning approval and is expected to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 550-650 tonnes annually.The Times of IndiaGreater Noida condo first to get rooftop solar panel to power lifts, corridor lights, water pumps | Noida News - The Times of IndiaA residential society in Greater Noida West, Arihant Ardent, has become the first in the district to commission a 500-kilowatt peak rooftop solar power panel under the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana scheme, powering common facilities including lifts, corridor lights, and water pumps. The Rs 2.3 crore plant, which received a Rs 90 lakh government subsidy, is expected to reduce the society's annual common area electricity bill by approximately Rs 45 lakh while requiring no additional charges from its 1,519 residents. Several other housing societies in Greater Noida have since initiated the process of installing similar rooftop solar power plants, according to Noida Power Company Limited.BusinessLineUPERC denies permission to Noida Power to procure hybrid powerThe Uttar Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC) has rejected Noida Power Company Ltd's proposal to procure 300 MW of hybrid renewable power, directing the utility to instead contract long-term firm power from coal-based plants or round-the-clock renewable sources. The regulator noted that due to low capacity utilization factors, the proposed wind and solar plant would deliver only about 136 MW of average power, while also causing the utility's renewable purchase obligation to substantially exceed Ministry of Power targets. The order cited NPCL's growing dependence on short-term power purchases and anticipated industrial load increases from the upcoming Jewar International Airport as factors requiring more reliable baseload capacity.SolarQuarterUPERC Rejects NPCL’s 300 MW Long-Term Wind-Solar Hybrid Power Procurement ProposalThe Uttar Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC) rejected a petition from Noida Power Company Limited (NPCL) seeking approval to procure 300 MW of wind-solar hybrid power through a 25-year power purchase agreement via tariff-based competitive bidding. The Commission found the proposal neither the most economical option nor aligned with Central Electricity Authority planning recommendations, noting that FDRE tariffs approved for other discoms ranged from ₹4.25–4.38 per unit—lower than NPCL's claimed ₹4.85—and that standalone solar power was available at ₹2.50–2.70 per unit. UPERC advised NPCL to prioritize long-term contracts for firm power including coal-based or round-the-clock renewable energy while limiting intermittent renewable procurement to medium-term arrangements.The Times of IndiaUPERC drastically cuts Noida Power Company Ltd's surplus by Rs 906 crore for FY 2023-24 | Lucknow News - The Times of IndiaThe Uttar Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC) has revised Noida Power Company Ltd's (NPCL) revenue surplus for FY 2023-24 downwards by approximately Rs 906.82 crore, reducing it from Rs 1,500.63 crore to Rs 593.81 crore, following a detailed re-examination of tariff-related issues as directed by the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL). UPERC found that several of NPCL's expenses—including power purchase costs, infrastructure spending, loan-related costs, and other operational costs—were higher than previously considered. The Uttar Pradesh Rajya Vidyut Upbhokta Parishad (UPRVUP) has sought a review of the order, warning that the revised surplus could affect future tariff calculations and reduce tariff rebates available to NPCL's approximately 2.5 lakh power consumers in Greater Noida and nearby areas.The Times of IndiaNPCL to train 500 more youths to make them employable | Lucknow News - The Times of IndiaNoida Power Company Limited (NPCL) is expanding its CSR skilling initiative by training 500 additional local youths under Project Saksham starting July 2026, building on its track record of training 780 youths with 585 placements achieved so far. The program will provide free training in six different trades with assessment and certification by Sector Skill Councils, targeting a 75% placement rate and scheduled for completion by February 2027.
