ReNew Energy Global Plc’s commercial and industrial arm, ReNew Green Energy Solutions Private Limited, has raised $95 million in equity capital. The investment is led by LeapFrog Investments, which committed $50 million, and is supplemented by the Emerging Market Climate Action Fund and Carlyle AlpInvest. The transaction values the C&I division at approximately $850 million and represents a stake of roughly 11.3% of the business.
The capital will be deployed to scale ReNew Green’s clean‑energy portfolio, which already includes 2.5 GW of committed capacity and more than 2.0 GW of commissioned projects. About 1.3 GW of that capacity is secured under long‑term agreements with global technology leaders such as Microsoft, Amazon and Google. ReNew’s overall renewable portfolio stands at roughly 19.2 GW as of February 2026.
The investment underscores the strategic importance of the commercial‑industrial (C&I) sector in India’s decarbonisation journey. “The C&I industry will be central to India's decarbonisation journey, and with investors like LeapFrog, we can deepen our ability to provide reliable, cost‑competitive renewable power to leading businesses across sectors. This partnership helps us scale solutions that reduce emissions, strengthen energy security, and support India's industrial growth in a way that is both sustainable and inclusive,” said Sumant Sinha, Founder, Chairman & CEO of ReNew.
LeapFrog’s participation reflects its climate strategy of backing high‑growth, scalable businesses that enable emerging markets to leapfrog to cleaner, more resilient energy systems. “This investment exemplifies LeapFrog's climate strategy of backing high‑growth, scalable businesses that enable emerging markets to leapfrog to cleaner, more resilient energy systems. ReNew Green addresses a clear and rapidly growing demand for reliable renewable energy solutions among commercial and industrial customers, underpinned by structural tailwinds and a sustained green discount compared to grid tariffs,” said Nakul Zaveri, Global Co‑Lead for Climate Investment Strategy at LeapFrog. “We believe this platform can deliver strong commercial performance while driving meaningful emissions reduction and job creation at scale.”
ReNew’s financial performance in FY2025 was strong, with revenue reaching $1.1 billion and a low debt‑to‑equity ratio of 0.06. The equity injection will improve liquidity and strengthen the balance sheet, addressing concerns about short‑term cash constraints and supporting the company’s aggressive expansion plans.
The transaction signals robust investor confidence in ReNew’s business model and its C&I platform’s growth potential. By securing additional working capital, ReNew is positioned to accelerate the deployment of renewable capacity to data‑center, industrial and commercial customers across India, further solidifying its leadership in a market that accounts for nearly 50 % of the country’s electricity consumption.
