Himurja, state government’s nodal agency for renewable energy programmes, has opened the doors for all power producers to set up ground-mounted solar power projects having capacity ranging from 1 MW to 5 MW.
“Until now, only the Himachalis were allowed to set up solar power projects up to 5 MW capacity. As per the directions of the government, now all interested power producers can apply for setting up projects having capacity from 1 to 5 MW,” said a Himurja official. “This has been done to ensure quicker exploitation of solar power potential,” he added.
