Commenting on the development, Prasanna Kumar Motupalli, Chairman and Managing Director of NLC India Limited, said the successful commissioning of the entire Barsingsar solar project marks a significant step in the company’s renewable energy journey. He noted that the project highlights strong execution capabilities, a commitment to clean energy and alignment with national priorities under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s Central Public Sector Undertaking scheme. He added that the use of high-efficiency, domestically manufactured solar modules supports the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative while contributing to India’s transition towards a sustainable and resilient energy future.
