Clean energy provider Gentari and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have entered a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for an 80MW wind power project in Tamil Nadu, India, a milestone in their shared commitment to large-scale renewable energy deployment.
Building on a 2023 collaboration agreement, this new PPA marks a significant step in advancing cost-effective, utility-scale clean energy projects. The wind farm is scheduled to begin operations in mid-2027 and is expected to generate approximately 300,000 MWh of renewable electricity annually.
The project supports Gentari’s mission to put clean energy into action while helping AWS achieve its ambitious target of net-zero carbon emissions by 2040.
A formal document exchange ceremony commemorated the agreement. Representing Gentari was Low Kian Min, Chief Renewables Officer, and representing AWS was Jeff Johnson, Managing Director of ASEAN. The event was witnessed by senior leaders, including Tengku Muhammad Taufik, Chairman of Gentari and President & Group CEO of PETRONAS, Sushil Purohit, CEO of Gentari, Uwem Ukpong, VP of Global Services at AWS, and Ir Ts Mohd Yusri Mohamed Yusof of PETRONAS.
“This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to advancing practical, scalable, and clean energy solutions – vital for Asia and the world’s move towards a low-carbon future. Through projects like the Karur wind development, we are not just adding renewable capacity – we are addressing real energy needs where it matters most. Together with AWS, we are focused on delivering impact through action and enabling the broader energy ecosystem to transition. Gentari is excited to support AWS in their net zero journey, and we welcome more partners to join us in building a more robust clean energy ecosystem,” said Sushil Purohit, CEO of Gentari.
“As the world’s largest corporate purchaser of renewable energy globally, AWS continues to work towards our goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions by 2040. Our collaboration with Gentari, a Malaysian clean energy leader expanding its regional impact, brings us a step closer towards that. We’re proud to work with forward-thinking organisations like Gentari who share our commitment to both technological advancement and environmental stewardship,” said Jeff Johnson, Managing Director, ASEAN, AWS.
The collaboration between Gentari and AWS reflects a broader, continuous commitment to unlocking scalable clean energy solutions across the region. As Gentari continues to grow its presence in renewable energy, hydrogen, and green mobility, the company remains focused on building lasting partnerships that drive tangible impact and accelerate the journey to net zero.
