Raghanesda Solar Park , Raghanesdha, Gujarat

About the plant: Commissioned by Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL), Raghanesda Solar Park is one of the largest solar projects in Gujarat, India. This 100 MW installation at Banaskantha district is a paradigm of TPREL’s dedication to advancing India's renewable energy goals for 2030 and combatting climate change through substantial reductions in carbon emissions.

 

Challenges and solutions:  The Raghanesdha team experienced a fair share of challenges, all of them compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, Tata Power Solar Systems Limited reigned in the difficulties and helped TPREL complete the project on time. This is a case in point about Tata Power’s remarkable management and project execution skills, especially for large-scale renewable energy projects.

 

Sustainability at Raghanesdha: With the capacity to generate 255 million units of electricity, this Gujarat plant makes up a sizeable portion of the region’s renewable energy capacity.  Further, this plant is poised to cut down about 2,00,000 tonnes of carbon emissions every year. 


CSR: The project has created job opportunities and supported the local economy through the development and maintenance of the park, and the electricity generated is sold to Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam under a long-term PPA.
