Vikram Solar commissioned a 200MW solar power project for Andhra Pradesh Power Generation Corporation (APGENCO) that will power nearly 1,50,000 homes once connected to the grid. The plant situated in district Anatapuramu, Andhra Pradesh is segregated into two blocks of 100MW each for better management and higher efficiency.
The project is spread across 1000 acres (500 acres each for 100MW) of undulated rocky terrain, and power will be evacuated at 33KV level in two pooling substations of 33/220 KV capacity, which will further evacuate power to 220/400KV main substation.
In the project, a total of 8,48,680 modules, ranging from 320wp to 330wp were installed. The project is expected to produce 446 MU energy annually and will reduce 210 metric tonnes of CO2 emissions in a year. Vikram Solar will also carry out Operation and Maintenance (O&M) of the plant for a period of 5 years from the date of commissioning.
