Maharashtra Invites Bids for Solar Power Projects Under KUSUM Scheme

In a significant move towards harnessing renewable energy for agricultural development, Maharashtra has announced the invitation of bids for solar power projects under the Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahaabhiyan (KUSUM) scheme. This initiative is designed to enhance the income of farmers while promoting the use of sustainable energy sources.

The KUSUM scheme focuses on providing financial and water security to farmers by supporting the installation of solar pumps, solarization of existing grid-connected agriculture pumps, and setting up solar power projects. Maharashtra's call for bids signals a commitment to advancing clean energy solutions and promoting the adoption of solar technology in the agricultural sector.

Farmers across the state stand to benefit from the integration of solar power into their operations, reducing dependence on traditional energy sources and contributing to a more sustainable and eco-friendly farming ecosystem. The move aligns with the broader national goal of increasing the share of renewable energy in the country's total energy consumption.

The bidding process opens up opportunities for investors and developers to participate in Maharashtra's solar power projects, fostering collaboration in the pursuit of greener and more energy-efficient agricultural practices.
