The State Administrative Council (SAC) which met under the chairmanship of Governor, Satya Pal Malik, took note of the status report submitted by the Power Development Department (PDD) regarding development of hydroelectric and solar power projects in the state, an official handout said.
It may be recalled that the SAC in February 2019 had mandated the PDD to execute the hydro and solar power projects above 2 MW and the Science and Technology Department up to 2MW.
13 small HEPs of 2 MW to 10 MW with an aggregate capacity of 112.5 MW had been identified by JAKEDA for implementation through EPC mode under PMDP-2015. These projects are at various stages of bidding process.
