On 16th February 2024, the Honorable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will inaugurate the 300 MW Nokhra Solar Project of NTPC Green Energy Limited via video-conferencing.
Located across 1550 acres in the Bikaner district of Rajasthan, this project is being developed under the CPSU Scheme (Phase-II) with an investment of Rs 1803 crore, aimed at providing green power to the state of Telangana.
Expected to generate 730 million units of electricity annually, this project will not only illuminate over 1.3 lakh households but also help in mitigating 6 lakh tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per year. Over a span of 25 years, it is projected to reduce CO2 emissions by a total of 15 million tonnes.
Over 13 lakh solar PV modules have been installed in this project under the flagship Make-in-India programme, thereby strengthening Govt of India’s resolve of Atmanirbhar Bharat.
As NTPC actively embraces a “just transition” by integrating more clean energy into its portfolio, this project is poised to significantly reduce carbon emissions, thereby contributing to a cleaner and more sustainable energy future. |
