At present, Tata Power is working on projects in Indonesia, Bhutan, South Africa, Nepal and Australia, among others.

In South Africa, the company's joint venture with Exxaro Resources -- Cennergi (Pty) Ltd -- is currently focusing on renewable energy and aims to have a balanced portfolio of generation assets. Cennergi has emerged as preferred bidder for 139 MW Amakhala and 95 MW Tsitsikamma wind projects.

Tata Power's Indonesia presence includes 30 per cent equity stakes in two major thermal coal producers -- PT Kaltim Prima Coal and PT Arutmin Indonesia, and a related trading company owned by PT Bumi.

By 2020, Tata Power expects to have a generation capacity of 26,000 MW.
