Trichy Corporation has managed to obtain both administrative and technical approvals for establishing a 2.5 megawatt (MW) solar park under smart cities mission to generate electricity from sunlight
In a list of more than 18 proposals made by Trichy Corporation, the civic body had also envisaged a plan to establish a solar power park. Identifying Panchapur as apt location, the civic body earlier submitted a proposal with a high power committee comprising senior bureaucrats from the state government. The proposal estimated at Rs 13 crore will establish 2.5 MW solar powerplant sprawling for 15 acres in Panchapur on Trichy-Madurai NH. “We have obtained required approvals for implementing the project under smart cities mission. Soon a tender inviting eligible contractor will be floated within a month to issue a work order,” N Ravichandran, Commissioner, Trichy Corporation said
The civic body has planned to join hands with Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation (TANGEDCO) for supplying the electricity generated through the solar park to a public grid. In return, Trichy Corporation will be equally compensated while paying their electricity bill charged by electricity board for operation and maintenance works
