The board of directors of SJVN Limited, a joint venture between the Government of India (GOI) and Himachal Pradesh Government (GOHP), approved a joint venture agreement with Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) to form a new company. This 50:50 joint venture company will focus on developing green round-the-clock (RTC) renewable energy projects and other new technology-based projects. The initial authorized capital of the joint venture company will be Rs 250 crore, with a paid-up capital of Rs 2 crore divided into 20 lakh shares of Rs 10 each. Since both SJVN and IOCL are government-promoted entities, the agreement will be executed at arm's length to avoid any conflict of interest. The specific details of the joint venture's projects and objects will be determined upon finalization of the agreement and receipt of necessary approvals.

The company is on rapid progression to achieve its shared vision of 25,000 MW by 2030 & 50,000 MW by 2040. This shared vision has been formulated in sync with the commitment of the Government of India to generate 50 per cent of energy from non-fossil fuel-based energy resources by 2030.

SJVN, formerly known as Satluj Jal Vidyut Nigam Ltd, is an Indian public sector undertaking involved in hydroelectric power generation and transmission. It was incorporated in 1988 as Nathpa Jhakri Power Corporation, a joint venture between the Government of India and the Government of Himachal Pradesh.
