Tata power Renewable Energy (TPREL), has commissioned the 431 MW DC solar project at Neemuch in Madhya Pradesh. The project was allotted through a competitive bidding process, believed to be India’s most cost effective bids for large scale solar energy production.
This project is spread across 1,635.63 acres, and was built after overcoming several challenges, including rocky terrain, transmission line readiness and remote site logistics. The combination of single-axis trackers and bi-facial modules has boosted the entire system by over 15 per cent.
