A 30-MW solar power plant, the largest project of its kind in Asia, will be inaugurated by Chief Minister Narendra Modi on Friday.
The solar power plant has been set up by Moser Baer Projects in Gunthawada (Dalpatpura) village of Banaskantha, around 180 km from Ahmedabad. The company has invested Rs 450 crore for the twin solar power plants of 15 MW each.
This would be the fourth solar power plant to be commissioned in the state, the others being Gujarat Power Corporation's 1-MW plant, Lanco's 5-MW plant and Azure Power's 5-MW plant.
Officials said that Moser Baer had executed power purchase agreement (PPA) with Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited for 30 MW. As per the PPA, it would get Rs15 per unit of power for first 12 years and Rs 5 per unit from the 13th to 25th year.
In all, the state government has signed PPAs for 958 MW of solar power. The coming days are expected to see a number of solar power plants being commissioned.
DJ Pandian, principal secretary, energy and petrochemicals department of the state government, said that they expect around 300 MW of solar power generation capacity to be commissioned in the state before December 31.
