A major clean-energy investment for south Tamil Nadu was signed at the Secretariat on Thursday, July 9, 2026, in the presence of Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay.
Battery storage is what lets solar and wind power be used after sunset and when the wind drops — the missing piece of a clean grid. Making these systems in Tirunelveli brings a frontier industry and thousands of jobs to the southern districts, which have long sought more industrial investment.
The same day the Chief Minister reviewed the Industries Department and paid tribute to Panagal Raja, a founder of the Justice Party.
