BSES to get 510 MW green power from SECI for Delhi

Even as the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) allowed Delhi’s power distribution company BSES to approach the Union power ministry for de-allocating 621 mega-watt (MW) of electricity supply from NTPC’s Dadri-I generating station earlier in the month, the Reliance Infrastructure-led company said on Tuesday that BSES discoms have inked power sale agreements (PSA) with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) to procure 510 MW of solar and bundled hybrid power.

Hybrid power is a bundled mix of solar and wind-based electricity, and the BSES contract will include 300 MW is solar power and 210 MW hybrid capacity.
