TRADING UPDATE

 

MYTRAH ADDS FIRST SOLAR CAPACITY

 

Mytrah, the India-based renewable focused Independent Power Producer, is pleased to announce that 53 MW of solar capacity is now operational at plants in Punjab and Telangana. In addition to these solar plants, the company has added a further 65 MW of wind power, bringing total installed capacity to 1,119 MW. A further 624 MW of wind and solar plants are currently under construction.

 

The first half of 2017 has seen wind in line with expectations across the portfolio, with energy sale revenues increasing around 60% over 1H 2016 as a result of increased capacity. This revenue growth has been achieved despite the impact of a transformer failure at a Government substation in Rajasthan. Here rectification is well advanced, and our portfolio diversification has limited the impact to around 6% of revenue in 1H 2017.

 

Commenting on the update, Ravi Kailas, Chairman and CEO, Mytrah Energy Ltd. said:

 

"I am very excited to be announcing our first operating solar capacity. This is a major milestone for the company and adds further diversification to our revenue streams.

 

With 1,119 MW total wind and solar capacity today, and an additional 624 MW in construction, Mytrah has built a large-scale utility business with strong, stable cash flow and tremendous growth prospects."
