Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company (MSEDCL) has issued a letter of intent (LoI) to Adani Power (APL) for the supply of 5,000 MW of solar power to Maharashtra. This follows Adani Group’s successful bid to supply a total of 6,600 MW, including 5,000 MW of solar power and 1,600 MW of thermal power.
Adani Green Energy (AGEL) will enter into a long-term power purchase agreement (PPA) with MSEDCL to provide solar energy from the world’s largest renewable energy park in Khavda, Kutch, Gujarat. Additionally, APL will sign a long-term PSA for the supply of 1,496 MW of thermal power from a 1,600 MW Ultra-supercritical thermal power plant in Maharashtra.
