JSW Energy Limited (JSWEL), the energy arm of the
JSW Group, is one of the leading private players
in the power sector. Established in 1994, the
company has projects across the generation,
transmission, manufacturing and trading segments.
It recently incorporated its wholly owned
subsidiary, JSW Solar Limited, to pursue projects
in renewable energy, energy storage solutions,
microgrids, etc. The move is expected to help the
company establish a strong foothold in the
renewable energy space and acquire a sizeable
share of the market.

the company is actively involved. In 2008, JSWEL
