JSW Energy Limited is considering further legal options, including a potential appeal to the Supreme Court, following an unfavorable order from the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL) regarding its Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) projects with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI).
The matter stems from a previous disclosure on January 3, 2025, concerning a Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) order dated January 2, 2025. This order did not adopt the proposed tariff for the 500 MW / 1000 MWh Standalone Battery Energy Storage Systems Project, which was allocated to JSW Renew Energy Five Limited (JSWREL), a step-down subsidiary of JSW Energy, by SECI.
JSWREL appealed the CERC order to APTEL. However, on September 12, 2025, APTEL upheld the original CERC decision, dismissing the appeal.
The company is now evaluating its options, including the possibility of appealing to the Supreme Court against the APTEL order.
Monica Chopra, Company Secretary of JSW Energy, has signed off on the official release.
