In a significant development for India’s renewable energy landscape, Vikram Solar, a leading provider of solar solutions, has successfully clinched a major contract to supply 152 MW of solar modules for an ambitious project undertaken by the National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) in Nokh, Rajasthan. The contract, governed by the Domestic Content Requirement (DCR), was formalized through a signed agreement between Vikram Solar and NTPC.
Under the terms of the agreement, Vikram Solar will be at the forefront of manufacturing and delivering high-efficiency Crystalline Bifacial Solar PV Modules to NTPC’s solar park situated in Nokh, Rajasthan. The adoption of high-efficiency MonoPERC modules underscores the commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology for enhanced energy production.
NTPC has strategically partnered with Vikram Solar for this crucial phase of its solar venture. The collaboration aims to augment the renewable energy capacity in Rajasthan, a state at the forefront of India’s solar revolution.
Vikram Solar, headquartered in Kolkata, stands as one of the nation’s largest photovoltaic (PV) module manufacturers, boasting an impressive cumulative production capacity of 3.5 GW. This achievement not only reinforces the company’s position in the market but also highlights its capability to meet the growing demands of the renewable energy sector.
The 152 MW solar module supply is expected to contribute significantly to NTPC’s overarching goal of expanding its renewable energy portfolio and promoting sustainable power generation practices. The use of Crystalline Bifacial Solar PV Modules, known for their efficiency in capturing sunlight from both sides, exemplifies the commitment to maximizing energy output.
The Nokh project marks another milestone in India’s journey towards achieving its renewable energy targets and reducing its carbon footprint. Rajasthan, with its abundant sunlight and vast expanses of available land, continues to be a key player in the country’s quest for clean energy.
