A 1,000 MW solar park for the southern state of
. . . . . . Andhra Pradesh, Punjab and Telangana, have signed agreements with the,
. . . Solar Energy Corporation of India, to set up projects.

The 1,000 MW solar power capacity will be bundled with
. . . 500 MW thermal power capacity and
. . . then sold to power utilities in Andhra Pradesh.
This mode reduces the overall cost of electricity per unit and
. . . enables the utilities to procure solar power and
. . . conventional power from a single entity.

The government also plans to add
. . . 10 GW wind energy capacity every year.
India’s current installed renewable energy capacity stands at about 32.5 GW.
