TGNPDCL Crosses 100 MW Solar Milestone Under PM-KUSUM
TGNPDCL has reached an important solar power goal.
It now has more than 100 megawatts of solar capacity through the PM-KUSUM-A scheme.
The projects are spread across the company’s 18 circles.
The scheme allows farmers to build solar plants on their own land.
Farmers may sell extra electricity to the power grid and earn additional income.
Solar power can also reduce reliance on conventional energy sources.
TGNPDCL is developing another 200 megawatts of solar capacity.
The company hopes to connect about 300 megawatts to the grid within three to four months.
TGNPDCL has crossed 100 MW of solar generation capacity under PM-KUSUM-A across all 18 circles.
CMD Karnati Varun Reddy said the milestone strengthens the organisation’s commitment to clean and sustainable energy.
PM-KUSUM-A enables farmers to establish solar plants on their land and potentially earn additional income.
Another 200 MW of solar capacity is at various development stages, bringing planned capacity to about 300 MW.
TGNPDCL aims to integrate the full 300 MW of solar power with the grid within three to four months.
