Adani Power to commission 40-Mw solar project

Adani Power Ltd (APL) would commission its 40-megawatt (Mw) photovoltaic solar project at Bitta village, near Abdasa, in Kutch district of Gujarat by the end of this financial year, Chief Executive Officer Ravi Sharma said here today.

“We may expand the plant’s capacity to 100 Mw over the next two years,” said Sharma. The company has already signed long-term power purchase agreements with the Gujarat government for selling the 40 Mw.

To promote green energy, APL is also looking at the possibility of setting up another 40-Mw solar power plant in Rajasthan. “A 40-Mw solar project is also being planned to be set up in Rajasthan,” Sharma said.
