4 MWp Solar PV Project in Karnataka, India

Renewable Energy

Solar

Captive open access

About this project

The project proposes to develop a 4 MWp (2.86 MW AC) Solar PV park in Raichur, Karnataka, India. This project aims to generate clean energy through solar for self consumption of the consumer under a captive structure. The project will contribute to reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainable energy solutions in the region.

The project will be developed on 12 acres of leased land in Raichur, Karnataka. The lease tenure is for 28 years.
