KPI Green Energy Ltd has secured a sanction of Rs 3,200 crore from the State Bank of India to finance its renewable energy projects in Gujarat, marking a significant boost for the company’s portfolio exceeding 1 GWp of Independent Power Producer (IPP) capacity. This funding underscores confident backing from India’s largest public sector bank and supports the company’s aggressive expansion in clean energy.
