On Monday, Tata Power told the media that its wholly-owned subsidiary TP Saurya has received a letter of intent (LoI) from the Maharashtra State Power Generation Corporation to build a 250 MW solar power plant.

According to the official press release, the plant will be located at the Dondaicha Solar Park in Maharashtra's Dhule District, and Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company has agreed to purchase power generated by the plant.

Praveer Sinha, chief executive officer and managing director, Tata Power told the media that the project will increase the share of renewable energy in Maharashtra's overall energy mix.

The project was awarded through a tariff-based competitive bidding process followed by an e-reverse auction, and it will be operational within 15 months of the power purchase agreement's execution, according to the company.

Tata Power Limited, a subsidiary of the Tata Group, is an Indian electric utility company based in Mumbai, Maharashtra. The company's main business is generating, transmitting, and distributing electricity. It has a total installed capacity of 10,577 MW, making it India's largest integrated power company.
