NTPC solar PV Project commences for commercial operations in Ayodhya

A solar power project being set up by NTPC Ltd in Ayodhya has started its commercial operations by taking the public sector’s commercial capacity to 73,888MW. The complete power generation at the 40 MW solar plant for which the land has been provided by the UP government is expected to commence by March 31.

The 40 MW plant would enable the temple town to develop as a solar city to meet a large amount of its power demand under the state government’s solar policy, which is expected to meet at least 10 percent of the total demand through renewable power.
