Sterling and Wilson Renewable Energy Limited (SWREL) has secured two major renewable energy orders worth more than Rs. 985 crore, including a 534.3 MWp solar project in Rajasthan and two battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in South Africa with a combined capacity of 616 MWh.

SWREL said the South African project will be its second-largest utility-scale BESS project to date.
