Solar Park

Solar Park Demonstration Projects will be in non-

agricultural lands

Two types of Land will be used:

- Government owned land- Railway owned Land.

Power generated will be directly fed into the Grid oncommercial basis

Primarily 8 potential sites have been identified

Estimated Development Target: 135 MW
