New Delhi: Tata Power Renewable Energy Ltd (TPREL), an arm of Mumbai-based private power producer Tata Power, today announced it has commissioned a 100 Megawatt solar power project at Anthapuramu Solar Park in Andhra Pradesh.

With this, the overall operating renewable energy capacity of the company stands at 2,215 Mw in India, the firm said in a statement. The company has tied-up the sale of power from the plant under a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement with state-owned Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI).

“We plan to add around 1,000 Mw renewable energy capacity to our portfolio every year, scaling it to 45-50 per cent in the next five years, largely through organic growth,” Tata Power Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Praveer Sinha said.

The project is part of a scheme by the Ministry of New And Renewable Energy (MNRE) for developing grid-connected solar power capacity under the second phase of Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) through Viability Gap Funding.

TPREL is Tata Power's primary investment vehicle for renewable energy based power generation capacity. The company’s current operational capacity includes 931 MW wind and 1,284 MW solar projects in India. TPREL is also setting up greenfield renewable energy projects of 121 MW capacity at multiple locations.

Andhra Pradesh: E-Autos to hit roads in Guntur

GUNTUR: Environment friendly electric autos will hit the city shortly. Vexed with the high pollution and traffic woes being caused by the diesel and petrol autorikshaws, the district administration has decided to encourage the autos in a big way. The district administration has decided to relax registration norms for the auto drivers who will be shifted to new mode of public carrier, e-auto, to make the city pollution free.

District collector Kona Sasidhar and GMC commissioner Shrikesh B Lathkar inspected the e-autos manufactured by Bharath Automobile works here on Thursday. After making a trial run, district collector Sasidhar and Shriekesh expressed their satisfaction on the functioning of the vehicle and resolved to encourage the e-autos.

Speaking to reporters, district collector said that they would relax the registration norms for e-autos and grant permission to run any number of e-autos. “About 30000 autos are moving on the city roads making them congested. The existing autos are main culprits of high volumes of air pollution in the city,” said the collector.

The collector said that they would encourage any company that comes forward to manufacture e-autos. He said that they have already imposed a ban on registration of diesel, petrol autos in the city and they would encourage the drivers to go for the e-autos. He said that they would phase out the existing diesel, petrol autos slowly and introduce the e-autos. Deputy transport commissioner GC Rajarathnam and district revenue officer K Nagababu were also present.

Interestingly, the e-auto costs just Rs 1.5 lakh while the conventional fossil fuels based autos cost Rs 3.5 lakh. The good transport mode e-auto cost just Rs 1.45 lakh. The e-auto is re-chargeable and economical.

CleanMax Solar to install rooftop unit for AP Secretariat

CleanMax Solar is set to install a 842 kWp rooftop solar power unit at the Andhra Pradesh Secretariat in the upcoming Greenfiled capital city of Amaravati.

The project is being installed in partnership with the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority (APCRDA). The solar project is the first Power Purchase Agreement signed as a part of the tender awarded by New & Renewable Energy Development Corporation of Andhra Pradesh Ltd. (NREDCAP) to CleanMax Solar. The plant will be spread across seven buildings , including the Chief Minister’s Office Building and AP Assembly, among others.

The project is based on the Resco (renewable service company) and Opex (Operational expense) model.

The unit is expected to generate 12.4 lakh units per annum, with estimated saving on electricity bills to be Rs 42 lakh per annum for the next 25 years. The plant will abate 1026 tonnes of CO2 emission annually, equivalent to planting 24,360 trees.

Andrew Hines, Co-founder, CleanMax Solar in a statement said, “Amaravati has been envisioned as a truly global city, and we are part of making it a sustainable city as well. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has laid special emphasis on driving sustainability by sourcing a large portion of its energy requirement from renewable energy.”

“CleanMax Solar will equip the city with one of its first solar projects, to meet 25% of AP Secretariat’s power requirement through sustainable solar power,” he said. It recently installed a 2MWp solar plant for Hindustan Shipyard Ltd in Andhra Pradesh. Once the Secretariat project is operational, the company projects will be abating 6168 tonnes of CO2 annually, via 4.3 MW of rooftop solar projects across 5 locations in Andhra Pradesh.
