Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) has successfully commissioned a 5MW eco-friendly Grid-Connected Solar Power Plant located at Shivanasamudram near Mandya in Karnataka. The plant has been set up by the company for Karnataka Power Corporation (KPCL) and is the single largest Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Power Plant in Karnataka.
For the Shivanasamudram project, the company’s scope of work included design, manufacture, supply, erection and commissioning of the Solar Power Plant. In addition, BHEL will also operate and maintain the solar power plant for a period of 3 years. The Solar Power Plant is operating satisfactorily since synchronizing with the main grid and DC power generated by the solar panels is converted into AC by inverters and fed into a 66 kV grid through transformers.
With this, the company had set a new record in its Solar PV business in a single year, by commissioning 15MW of Solar Power Plants in various parts of the country during fiscal 2011-12, marking a significant contribution to the nation’s Green Initiatives.
