GAIL (India) Ltd and Rajasthan Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam Limited (RRVUNL) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore the development of 1 GW solar and wind projects in Rajasthan, as well as the joint operation of gas-based power plants in the state.
The non-binding MoU includes the potential transfer of RRVUNL’s gas-based power plants in Dholpur and Ramgarh to a proposed joint venture company between GAIL and RRVUNL. The partnership will focus on establishing around 1,000 MW of solar and wind projects on suitable land parcels, pending detailed feasibility studies to ensure the techno-commercial viability of the projects.
