  • Tata Power has actually announced that the company has received a LoA from KSEBL on January 6, 2021, to create a 110 MW solar project.

Tata Power, one of India's largest incorporated power companies, has announced that the firm has actually received a Letter of Award (LoA) from the Kerala State Electricity Board Limited (KSEBL) on January 6, 2021, to develop a 110 MW solar project.

The energy will be provided to KSEBL under a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), legitimate for a period of 25 years from scheduled commercial procedure date. The Company has won this capacity in a proposal revealed by KSEBL in September 2020. The project has to be commissioned within 18 months from the day of implementation of the PPA.

The Plant is anticipated to produce concerning 274 MUs of energy per year as well as will every year balance out roughly 274 Million Kg of CO2.

With this, Tata Power's sustainable ability will certainly increase to 4,032 MW, out of which 2,667 MW is operational and also 1365 MW is under execution including 110 MW won under this LOA.

Praveer Sinha, CEO & MD, Tata Power, claimed, "we are proud to introduce that we have actually been granted 110 MW Solar Project by KSEBL, and also are appreciative to the Government of Kerala as well as the officials at KSEBL for this possibility. We are delighted to contribute in the direction of the realisation of our country's dedication in the direction of clean and also environment-friendly energy with solar energy generation."

In November, we had reported that KSEBL had ultimately gotten to closure on its pursuit for 200 MW solar power for the state, though the last reported rate of Rs 2.97 system. NTPC, which had placed its quote at Rs 2.97 per unit for 90 MW, got its complete quote, while Tata Power, which had bid at a higher amount for the complete 200 MW, needed to choose the continuing to be 110 MW after matching the lower bid worth of NTPC.

KSEB had actually previously drifted a tender for the amount in March 2019, where a bad reaction (Sole prospective buyer CIAL Infrastructure for 10 MW) indicated that it at some point had to terminate the entire tender.
