Sanjay Banga to head Tata Power’s Renewables; redesignated President – Renewables

Tata Power has redesignated Sanjay Banga as President – Renewables and placed him in charge of the company’s renewable vertical, sharpening leadership focus as India’s green build-out accelerates. The ETHRWorld report highlights a structural step: concentrating accountability for solar, wind, and allied green initiatives under a senior leader who has navigated operational complexity at scale. For Tata Power, the verticalization signals intent to align strategy, capital formation, project execution, and downstream services (like O&M and distributed renewables) under an integrated P&L lens. The designation also fits a wider industry pattern, elevating renewables into standalone verticals with board-level visibility to compete for capital, partnerships, and talent. While the item emphasizes the role change, it implies continued push on capacity addition, storage, and hybridization, areas where leadership clarity aids faster, de-risked delivery.
