Two of North Delhi Power Limited’s (NDPL) solar power plants, which will jointly produce 88 kilowatt (kw) of energy, will become operational by August this year.

A 43 kw solar power plant, to be set up in Narela, will become operational in July, a ministry of new and renewable energy (MNRE) official told Governance Now. “The other solar power plant, to be set up in Bawana, will produce 45 kw of energy and become operational by August,” he said.

NDPL recently launched its tail-end grid connected solar photovoltaic power plant at Pooth Khurd, Bawana. “A tail-end solar power feeds the energy generated to the grid thus increasing the power supply,” said the official. The plant at Pooth Khurd is generating 54 kw of energy.

The MNRE is providing a 50 percent capital subsidy on tail-end grid connected solar power plants.
