The 600 MW plant is being built on the Omakareshwar Dam's reservoir and the evacuating infrastructure is being provided by the state-owned Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Limited (RUMSL). [3] Reportedly, this plan will be the largest floating solar power generation facility globally. [4] In August 2023, a capacity of 278 MW had been activated.
The 100 MW plant is built on the balancing reservoir of the NTPC Ramagundam [1] and reached full operational capacity on July 1, 2022. [2] Spanning 500 acres and built by Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited at a cost of ₹ 423 crore (equivalent to ₹ 448 crore or US$54 million in 2023), [3] [4] the floating plant consists of 40 blocks, each capable of producing 2.5 MW.
The 92 MW floating solar power plant is constructed upon a number of reservoirs owned by the National Thermal Power Corporation's Rajiv Gandhi Combined Cycle Power Plant. The last phase of the plant went online in July 2022. [1] [2] The plant supplies power to the Kerala State Electricity Board, utilizing the 22 0kV GIS substation. [3]
