  • KP Group and Saudi Arabia’s Raz Holding Group Explore Strategic Investment Partnership

    KP Group, a leading renewable energy and infrastructure group, has signed a Non-Binding Letter of Intent (LOI) with Riyadh based Raz Holding Group, one of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s leading diversified conglomerates, recording Raz Holding Group’s intention to make a strategic investment in, or enter into a collaboration with, KP Group or one or more of its operating entities.

    The investment could take the form of an acquisition, a capital infusion or another form of collaboration. Structure, instrument and valuation will be agreed between the two groups after due diligence is completed. The transaction is subject to due diligence, definitive agreements and customary corporate and regulatory approvals in India.

    The two groups will work towards definitive agreements during an exclusivity period of 90 days, with the LOI valid until November 18, 2026 unless extended.

    The proposed collaboration reflects growing international investor interest in India’s clean-energy sector and KP Group’s expanding portfolio across Solar and Wind IPP, EPC, transmission and manufacturing, along with its emerging capabilities in battery energy storage systems, cell manufacturing, O&M services and green hydrogen.

    KP Group India’s leading renewable energy company has built a diversified renewable energy portfolio spanning more than 9.2 GW across solar, wind, hybrid energy, battery energy storage systems and other clean-energy projects, with more than 3.2 GW of installed capacity and 5.9 GW of orders in hand. The Group has also established a strong presence across the renewable energy value chain, including IPP, EPC, transmission, manufacturing, O&M and emerging green-energy technologies. The Group also has strong engineering support, with over 400,000 MT of annual production capacity feeding its renewable energy projects. It also operates Asia’s largest galvanising kettle at its Matar village, Bharuch, Gujarat manufacturing facility.

    Beyond its growing domestic portfolio, KP Group has been actively expanding its international footprint through strategic partnerships, global alliances and large-scale clean-energy opportunities across key international markets. The Group has significantly strengthened its presence in South Korea through strategic engagements with AHES Co. Ltd., GH2 Solar and Jeonbuk Special Self-Governing Province, focused on advancing green hydrogen and green ammonia technologies, electrolysis-based hydrogen production and international offtake opportunities.

    The Group has also entered into a global alliance with Fabtech Group to develop and implement green-energy-powered pharma, biotech and healthcare infrastructure across global markets, including the Middle East and Africa, integrating solar, wind, hybrid energy, Battery Energy Storage Systems and green hydrogen solutions.

    Further expanding its global technology and infrastructure ambitions, KP Group has entered into a global MoU with F Plus Healthcare Technologies and FVE Lifecare General Trading LLC for the development of green-powered modular data centres, life-sciences and advanced technology facilities across international markets, with a strong focus on integrating renewable energy and advanced infrastructure solutions.

    The Group has also made a significant strategic entry into Africa through Botswana, where KP Group signed an MoU with the Government of the Republic of Botswana for the development of nearly 5 GW of renewable energy capacity, along with associated energy storage and transmission infrastructure, involving a proposed investment of approximately US$4 billion.

    Land allocation for the project is already under way. The proposed development represents one of the Group’s most significant international renewable-energy initiatives and reflects its ability to pursue large-scale integrated energy projects beyond India. Taken together, these engagements across South Korea, the Middle East and Africa point to KP Group’s ambition to build a globally connected clean-energy platform — and to attract the international capital and technology to do it.

    Dr. Faruk G. Patel, Founder and CMD, KP Group, said, “The interest shown by Raz Holding Group is a strong endorsement of the quality of the assets we have built over three decades and of the long-term opportunity in India’s energy transition. International capital is looking closely at Indian clean-energy platforms today, and we are pleased that a group of Raz Holding Group’s standing sees KP Group as a partner of choice. We see this as part of a broader shift in how global capital views Indian renewables, and we look forward to taking the conversation forward.”

    Mr. Riyadh Al-Zamil, Founder and Chairman, Raz Holding Group, said, “KP Group has built a credible and integrated renewable-energy platform with significant long-term potential. We look forward to exploring this opportunity and strengthening investment collaboration between Saudi Arabia and India in the clean-energy sector.”

  • Hoymiles Introduces Two New Solutions for Faster and Smarter Whole-Home Backup

    Hoymiles Introduces Two New Solutions for Faster and Smarter Whole-Home Backup

    Hoymiles has launched two new solutions, HiSwitch and HiBox, designed to simplify whole-home backup and improve the flexibility of residential energy storage systems. The new products are designed to work with the company’s HiOne All-in-One Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), enabling seamless off-grid switching and providing homeowners with a more integrated approach to backup power.

    HiSwitch combines a transfer switch, circuit breaker, meter, bypass switch and current transformer (CT) into a five-in-one unit. Designed for installation directly inside a household distribution board using a DIN-rail configuration, the compact system is intended to reduce the number of components, cabling and installation work required. It supports a maximum bypass current of 100 A, allowing it to handle a range of household loads, including high-power appliances.

    Hoymiles said HiSwitch is rated for 6,000 high-current switching cycles and has a 6 kA short-circuit current rating (SCCR), while its replaceable design can allow installers to replace the unit separately rather than replacing the entire energy storage system. The company estimates that this approach can reduce replacement time by up to 80 percent.

    HiBox functions as the central control hub for whole-home backup and is designed to support system expansion as household energy requirements increase. The solution allows users to add a second inverter to increase capacity and backup capability, while supporting compatible third-party generators and PV inverters. It also provides data monitoring without requiring additional metering equipment and enables intelligent management of loads connected through its Smart Port.

    By combining HiSwitch and HiBox with the HiOne All-in-One BESS, Hoymiles aims to offer a more integrated residential energy ecosystem that can simplify installation, support future expansion and improve household energy resilience. The company said the new solutions are intended to give homeowners greater flexibility in building whole-home backup systems while making better use of available clean energy.

  • CEA Proposes Roadmap for Indigenous SCADA Systems in India

    CEA Proposes Roadmap for Indigenous SCADA Systems in India

    The Central Electricity Authority (CEA) has proposed a phased roadmap for the development and deployment of indigenous Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems for India’s power sector. The initiative is aimed at reducing dependence on imported technology while strengthening cybersecurity, energy security and the resilience of critical power-grid infrastructure.

    The CEA committee’s report on the “Formulation of Trajectory of Indigenisation of SCADA System” outlines an indigenisation programme covering 38 software modules and 25 hardware components. The committee has indicated that India has the technical capability to achieve the targeted localisation during 2026-27 to 2028-29, provided adequate funding, testing infrastructure and implementation support are made available.

    Under the proposed roadmap, the development of core SCADA and communication systems would begin from 2026-27, followed by more advanced functions for grid monitoring, generation management, power-flow planning and security assessment. More specialised functions are expected to be developed by 2028-29.

    The committee has also recommended establishing a dedicated testing platform within two years with government funding. The facility would allow indigenous SCADA modules to be evaluated under simulated grid conditions and assessed for cybersecurity performance before wider deployment.

    Pilot projects have been proposed at State Load Despatch Centres (SLDCs), Regional Load Despatch Centres (RLDCs) and the National Load Despatch Centre (NLDC). Indigenous SCADA and Energy Management System (EMS) software and hardware, including Remote Terminal Units, servers and workstations, would be tested alongside existing systems in real-time operating environments. SLDC Odisha has offered to provide a testing environment for the initiative.

    The report has further proposed creating a dedicated team within Grid India to oversee development, project management and future upgrades. It has also called for a suitable funding mechanism, potentially through government grants or another sustainable model, to support research, development, testing and implementation.

    The proposed roadmap comes ahead of the government’s plan to stop imports of SCADA systems for the power sector beyond 2030. The move is expected to encourage the development of domestic technology capabilities and reduce vulnerabilities associated with foreign technology and supply-chain dependence.

    The CEA officially listed the committee’s report on the indigenisation trajectory of SCADA systems on August 24, 2026.
