Adani Green Commissions 180 MW Solar Power Plant In Rajasthan

Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) has commissioned a 180 MW solar power plant at Devikot in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. The 180 MW solar plant will produce approximately 540 million electricity units annually, powering over 1.1 lakh homes and reducing around 0.39 million metric tons of CO2 emissions. The plant has a 25-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI).

The plant is equipped with next-generation bifacial solar PV modules, and horizontal single-axis solar trackers (HSAT) have been deployed to maximize generation through better efficiency of modules and tracking the sun throughout the day. Additionally, the plant is equipped with waterless robotic module cleaning systems, enabling water conservation in the barren region of Jaisalmer.

Furthermore, with the successful commissioning of this plant, AGEL’s operational solar portfolio has increased to 6,243 MW and the total operational renewable generation capacity to 9,784 MW.AGEL continues to play a pivotal role in India’s renewable energy sector, contributing to the nation’s goal of achieving energy security and enabling India’s transition to a low-carbon economy. Apart from this, AGEL is also executing the Khavda renewable energy park, which is one of the largest solar energy projects in India.

Project Objectives

The commissioning of the 180 MW solar power plant in Rajasthan by Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) is a significant development in India's renewable energy sector. The project was driven by several key objectives sucha as:

Enhancing Renewable Energy Capacity

The primary objective of this project was to augment India's renewable energy capacity. The addition of a 180 MW solar power plant significantly contributes to this goal, aligning with India's commitment to increasing its renewable energy capacity.

Promoting Energy Security

The project aims to enhance India's energy security. The 25-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) ensures a steady supply of renewable energy to the grid.
 

Promoting Advanced Technologies

The plant utilizes next-generation bifacial solar PV modules and horizontal single-axis solar trackers (HSAT). These technologies aim to maximize generation through better efficiency of modules and tracking the sun throughout the day.

Monitoring and Enhancing Operational Performance

The Energy Network Operation Center (ENOC) enables real-time monitoring of AGEL’s renewable energy assets. This technology aims to enhance operational performance and ensure the efficient functioning of the plant.
