Adani Green Energy declared the opening of a 180 MW solar power plant at Devikot, Rajasthan, which is located in Jaisalmer.
The largest renewable energy firm in India, Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL), mentioned in a statement that the plant has a 25-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI).
With the successful commissioning of this plant, AGEL's operational solar portfolio has raised to 6,243 MW, and the total operational renewable generation capacity to 9,784 MW, the largest in India, the statement added.
The 180-MW solar plant in Rajasthan will supply approximately 540 million electricity units every year, powering over 1.1 lakh homes and reducing around 0.39 million tonnes of CO2 emissions.
Next-generation bifacial solar PV modules and horizontal single-axis solar trackers (HSAT) have been deployed to maximise generation through better efficiency of modules and tracking the sun throughout the day.
The plant is equipped with waterless robotic module cleaning systems, enabling water conservation in the barren region of Jaisalmer.
The Energy Network Operation Centre (ENOC), anchored in the secured digital cloud platform, enables real-time monitoring of AGEL's renewable energy assets, leading to enhanced operational performance.
