    Charanka Solar Park 345 MW N.A. N.A. State of Gujarat N.A. Charanka,
    Gujarat

    Gujarat is one of the driest regions of Asia, but the abundance of solar power made this region one of the most
    appealing of India. Among other projects the Charanka Solar Park saw the light, which is not so much an actual plant,
    but more of a hub of plants. All projects in the area are commissioned by multiple developers, module manufacturers
    and financial parties. All projects combined result in one of the largest conglomerations of solar power capacity,
    which provides a good benchmark for the planned ultra-utility scale projects in India. With its size this is one of the
    largest solar sites in the world. Power is sold to the state of Gujarat at a rate of approximately USD $0,10 per kWh.

    The Neemuch Solar Plant is currently the flagship project of Welspun Power, as it is the largest commissioned solar
    project in India at this moment. Breaking ground since 2012 the project was commissioned in Mid-2015. The project,
    costing approximately $135 million USD, made global headlines in the PV sector by being financially backed by a
    financial coalition of global players. The project is in a PPA with the state of Madhya Pradesh in which it sells its
    electricity for approximately $0,1231 per kWh generated.

    plant can boast that over 60% of the modules are locally manufactured. During the commissioning of this plant Azure
    Power announced that it will start developing a 1.000 MW sized plant in the near future.

    Initially starting out as a mere 5 MW plant, this solar power plant was the first project to be commissioned under
    the National Solar Mission. Later Azure Power extended the plant with another 35 MW of solar capacity, resulting in
    this 40 MW plant. As this plant was built before the Make in India initiative this plant is an example of cooperation
    between a Indian project developer and a US-based manufacturer, as this plant uses primarily imported technology
    for its activities.

    Besides mining, commercial and agricultural applications solar power can also provide interesting energy solutions
    for airports. Cochin International Airport is the first Indian airport to be grid-neutral, as it fully empowers its business
    with its own solar plant with a capacity of 12 MW. This is a project development example that will see a lot of
    recurrences, as other airports are also exploring self-generation solutions: Netaji Subas Chandra Bose International
    Airport has already announced building a 2 MW solar plant.
