10 mw solar plant at Tirupati in AP
Vikram Solar commissioned a 10 mw solar plant at Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams land in Andhra Pradesh. The project has been developed under the PPA scheme between Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) and Vikram Solar Pvt Ltd,
Current installed capacity, including rooftop, is 300 MW.
A meeting of the State Cabinet, presided by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, on Tuesday approved the changes in the policy to encourage harnessing solar energy. The States solar energy potential is estimated in excess of 24,700 MW.
As per the tariff policy and targets fixed by MNRE, the solar energy should constitute eight per cent of the total energy consumption, excluding hydro energy by March 2022. The policy of the Centre envisages that 40 per cent of the solar generation should be through rooftop, Law and Parliamentary Affairs T.B. Jayachandra told presspersons.
The solar generation would be limited to 200 MW per taluk from all sources of generation excluding projects implemented on roof top. Such projects should be allocated on first-come-first-serve basis for various categories identified under clause 8 of the solar policy.
