ACME Solar commissions first phase of 52.5 MW out of 300 MW Acme Sikar Solar Power Project in Rajasthan
ACME Solar Holdings Limited (“ACME Solar”) has successfully commissioned the first phase of ACME Sikar Solar power project in Bikaner, Rajasthan. The current commissioning of 52.5 MW is part of the 300 MW solar project to be fully commissioned in phases. With this milestone, the company's total operational capacity has increased from 2,540 MW to 2,592.5 MW. Strategically located in one of India’s highest solar irradiation zones, it is poised to be an important contribution to India’s renewable energy goals.
The ACME Sikar Solar power project is spread across ~1300 acres in Bikaner, Rajasthan. The clean energy harnessed through this project is pooled at inverter stations and stepped up for evacuation to Bikaner-II grid using a dedicated single circuit 220 kV transmission line. Financed through PFC Limited, this project is anticipated to generate approximately 780 million units of clean energy annually following its full commissioning.
The power generated from the project will be sold on power exchanges on merchant basis and it shall be suitably allocated based on optimal commercial utilisation.
