Delhi eyes solar power from Rajasthan

A report in Times of India suggests that New Delhi Power (NDPL) is planning to set up a solar thermal plant in Rajasthan and “wheel” back the power to its customers in Delhi. The size of the proposed solar power plant is expected to be between 50MW and 100MW. The city of Delhi itself has no solar or wind power potential and is banking on drawing renewable energy from its neighbouring states.

NDPL, a JV between the Tata Group and Delhi government, aims to add at least 10-15MW of solar power to its distribution every year. It is already working on a 1MW rooftop solar project in collaboration with Tata BP Solar.
