NTPC Initiates Tender for 6.35 MW Rooftop Solar Projects

The National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) has taken a significant step towards expanding India's distributed solar capacity by initiating a tender for 6.35 megawatts (MW) of rooftop solar projects. This move aligns with the country's commitment to promoting decentralized solar energy generation and advancing its sustainable energy transition.

NTPC's tender is designed to encourage the development of rooftop solar installations, tapping into the potential of distributed solar power across various locations. The 6.35 MW capacity adds to the cumulative rooftop solar capacity in India, contributing to the nation's goals of increasing the share of clean and renewable energy in its overall energy mix.

As the distributed solar sector gains prominence, NTPC's tender is expected to attract interest from developers and stakeholders eager to participate in India's growing rooftop solar landscape. The initiative reflects NTPC's commitment to diversifying its energy portfolio and promoting environmentally friendly power generation methods.

This tender not only supports the growth of rooftop solar but also underscores NTPC's role as a key player in advancing India's renewable energy objectives. By fostering the development of distributed solar projects, NTPC contributes to the decentralisation of power generation, enhancing energy security and resilience in the process.
