Project Brief

The Purpose of this project activity is to generate electricity by harnessing the solar energy by using of solar photovoltaic technology and there by feed the generated electricity to the Indian national grid.

Project activity involves installation of two Solar photovoltaic power generation project in Punjab at two different locations with installed capacities of 4 MW and 24 MW each with total project capacity of 28 MW. The project is installed in Sri Muktsar Sahib districts of Punjab State of India. The Project activity has installed the Solar Photovoltaic based panels to convert the available solar radiation into the DC power and there by installed the inverters to convert the DC power to the AC Power.

Additional Information

The project is implemented by Azure Power Makemake Private Ltd., a subsidiary of Azure Power India Private Ltd. The project is commissioned and currently operational. The project has been connected to the National Grid through the locally available substations.

The generated power from the project activity is supplying to the Punjab State Power Corporation Ltd. (PSPCL) which is a part of Indian National gird. Project Owners have signed long-term Power Purchase agreement with the PSPCL to supply the generated solar power at a fixed price.
