Rajasthan Solar PV Project - India

Overview

The Rajasthan Solar PV Project, with a 100MWAC capacity, is set in the sun-baked expanse of Bhadla village, located in Jodhpur district, Rajasthan, India. This ambitious project harnesses the abundant solar energy using poly-crystalline technology, utilizing modules like Trina & Renesola: JC330/325M & TSM with a maximum power output ranging from 320 to 330 Wp.

The site, strategically connected by state highway NH-15, is equipped with 48 inverters from the SUNGROW Model PVS980-58-2091 kVA, ensuring the technical life of the solar plant extends to 25 years. By producing an annual average of 188,441 MWh of electricity, the project is estimated to replace approximately 176,539 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year, thereby contributing significantly to the reduction of greenhouse gases by displacing electricity that would have been otherwise generated from thermal power stations​.
