750 MW JNNSM Phase-II, Batch-I
New grid connected Solar power projects under JNNSM Phase-II, Batch-I comes under Solar Energy Corporation of India. As part of JNNSM Batch-I, proposals are invited by SECI and the process will be through issue of an "Request for Selection" (RFS). 750 MW of grid connected solar PV projects will be setting up for purchase of power for a period of 25 years.
SECI shall enter into Power purchase agreement (PPA) with successful bidders selected based on the RfS. The main aim and objective of the Mission is to put India as a global leader in solar energy, by creating the policy conditions for its large scale diffusion across the country as quickly as possible. The Mission has set a target, amongst others, for deployment of grid connected solar power capacity of 20,000 MW by 2022 to be achieved in 3 phases(first phase upto 2012-13, second phase from 2013 to 2017 and the third phase from 2017 to 2022).
The government’s vision of attaining the Mission targets are very strong and they have been very successful in Phase- I. Highly positive results of Phase-I implementation have laid a strong foundation for even better performance in the crucial Phase-II, wherein the JNNSM envisages cumulative installation of 10,000 MW utility scale and 1,000 MW off-grid solar power projects. In Phase-II, the government plans to install utility scale capacity of 3000 MW through the central scheme and the balance 6000 MW through various state schemes.
