Indian Government has prioritized meeting the ever-growing energy demands in the country which will be carried out via the National Solar Mission and providing lots of subsidies for both residential and commercial solar plants. The main aim is to accomplish a target of 20 GW for the total installed solar capacity by the end of 2022. The government has planned to install a solar capacity of 100 GW (including rooftop solar of 40 GW). During the first half of 2022, the total solar installed capacity stands at 57 GW (a rise of 7.2 GW) We will now talk about the Top 5 Solar Power Plant in India – 2022 https://realestateandepc.wordpress.com/2022/09/28/top-5-solar-power-plants-in-india-2022/

1. Top 5 Solar Power Plants in India 2022
In the last few years, there has been a significant impression of solar
energy development in Indian energy history. Solar energy
establishment applications are regionalized and distributed in a
manner that benefits millions of people to meet their daily energy
(cooking, light, and others) requirements in an eco-friendly way. Over
the years, this sector in India has materialized as a substantial

2. competitor in the grid-associated power generation capacity. It backs
the administrative plan of sustainable advancement while meeting the
nation’s need for energy.
India has sped up the process of increasing the solar energy ability and
we are now home to quite a few “largest power plants”. In terms of
solar power production, India is in third place in Asia and fourth in the
world — Accounting for 38% of total renewable energy.
Indian Government has prioritized meeting the ever-growing energy
demands in the country which will be carried out via the National
Solar Mission and providing lots of subsidies for both residential and
commercial solar plants. The main aim is to accomplish a target of 20
GW for the total installed solar capacity by the end of 2022. The
government has planned to install a solar capacity of 100 GW
(including rooftop solar of 40 GW). During the first half of 2022, the
total solar installed capacity stands at 57 GW (a rise of 7.2 GW)

3. We will now talk about the Top 5 Solar Power Plant in India
— 2022 The below table will name the Top 5 Solar plants
with their DC capacity
1) Bhadla Solar Park — Phalodi, Jodhpur — Rajasthan

4. a. The largest solar plant in the world which is located in India is
spread over 14,000 acres of land in total
b. The temperature in this area is anywhere between 46–48 degree
Celsius. This being a dry and sandy region, you can notice sand storms
and hot winds blowing too frequently

5. c. Due to its climatic conditions, Bhadla is described as “Unliveable” (a
place where you cannot live)
d. DC capacity of this plant is 2,245 MW
e. Soon the plant will be operating at its full capacity and would then
become the world’s biggest completely commissioned PV project — the
investment would rise up to 10,000 crore rupees — USD 1.3 billion
f. 580 MWp solar power plant in Bhadla, Rajasthan was set up by
SWRE ( Sterling and Wilson Renewable Energy), mechanised robotic
cleaning device was set up to boost power generation, and decreased
operational cost and water consumption
2) Pavagada Solar Park — Pavagada, Tumkur — Karnataka

6. a. This solar plant was completed in 2019, spread over 13,000 acres of
land (53 sq km)
b. Being the world’s second-largest PV solar plant (after Bhadla) with a
capacity of DC 2,050 MW
c. Project cost 14,800 crore rupees — USD 2.1 billion

7. 3) Kurnool Ultra Mega Solar Park — Panyam Mandal,
Kurnool — Andhra Pradesh
a. Kurnool is spread across 5,932.32 acres of land
b. Owned by APSPCL (Andhra Pradesh Solar Power Corporation
Private Limited), it was built on 29 thMarch 2017

8. c. Solar power developers, Central and state govt. invested around
7,000 crore rupee — USD 980 million on this project
d. DC capacity 1,000 MW
4) Rewa Ultra Mega Solar — Gurh, Rewa — Madhya Pradesh

9. a. Spread across 1,590 acres of land, this project was commissioned in
December 2019
b. A joint venture between MPUVNL (Madhya Pradesh Urja Vikash
Nigam Limited) and SECI (Solar Energy Corporation of India) is
RUMSL (Rewa Ultra Mega Solar)
c. DC capacity 750 MW
d. The first project in India to supply solar power for railway traction
e. World Bank Group’s President’s Award for excellence awardee for
its transaction structure
5) Charanka Solar Park (Gujarat Solar Park) — Charanka,
Patan — Gujarat

10. a. Spread on 4,900 acres of land
b. Investment of 5,365 crore rupees
c. DC capacity 690 MWp. Here in Gujarat Solar Park, 143.50 MWp
was set up by SWRE (Sterling and Wilson Renewable Energy) which
required 5, 07,769 panels. It helped to power around 6,677 homes in
the Charanka area
