Tata Power Solar Systems on Saturday said it has commissioned India’s largest floating solar power project of 101.6 Megawatt Peak (MWp) in Kerala backwaters.
The project is installed on a 350-acre water body in Kayamkulam, Kerala, a company statement said.
The installation was completed within the stipulated period, despite the arduous challenges of variable water depths, high sea tides, and severe water salinity concerns, it stated.
Tata Power Solar is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Power.
This project is the first in the Floating Solar Photovoltaic (FSPV) through power purchase agreement category, the company said.
“The commissioning of India’s first and largest floating solar project is an innovative and incremental step toward meeting India’s sustainable energy goals,” said Praveer Sinha, CEO, and MD, Tata Power.
