Tucker Breaks Ground on 800-MW Solar Park in Rajasthan, India

📍 Jaipur, Rajasthan | June 2025

Tucker Construction Group has officially commenced construction on a landmark 800-megawatt solar park in the Indian state of Rajasthan, marking a major milestone in the company’s growing clean energy portfolio and long-term partnership with the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), Government of India.

Strategically located across 2,100 acres in the Barmer district, the solar park is part of India’s National Solar Mission and the Smart Energy Infrastructure Program under the country’s broader Smart Cities initiative. Once operational, the project will generate enough power to serve over 1.2 million households annually, while reducing carbon emissions by more than 1.5 million metric tons per year.

“This project represents our commitment to driving sustainable infrastructure on a global scale,” said Alex Raymond, Vice President, Energy Projects – Tucker Construction Group. “We are proud to contribute to India’s renewable energy roadmap and to collaborate with local agencies and international technology partners to bring this vision to life.”

The project will incorporate:

• High-efficiency photovoltaic modules

• Smart energy storage systems

• Real-time performance analytics and monitoring

• Waterless cleaning and dust mitigation technologies

Construction is scheduled to be completed by Q4 2026, with over 4,000 local jobs created during the project lifecycle, including roles in construction, electrical installation, operations, and maintenance.

This marks Tucker’s third renewable energy project in India, following the successful delivery of solar and hybrid wind farms in Tamil Nadu and Gujarat. Globally, Tucker’s energy division is currently executing solar, wind, and hydro projects across 8 countries.

Stay tuned as we continue to deliver clean, resilient infrastructure across borders.
