GIPCL is developing a 2375 MW renewable energy park at Khavda.

The firm also has a wind energy portfolio of 112 MW that has been stagnant since the last commissioning in March 2017.

GIPCL is a government of Gujarat-owned entity. It has been promoted by leading  Gujarat PSUs, namely GSFC, GACL, and GUVNL. The company is engaged in the business of electrical power generation with a present installed generation capacity of 1184.4 MW.
