NTPC is planning to begin a feasibility study for a 130 MW floating solar power plant on Dumbur Lake in Tripura’s Gomati district. In the past five years, the northeastern state has increased solar power energy from 4.07 MW to 7.21 MW with the government trying hard to increase renewable energy in a big way.
Tripura Renewable Energy Development Agency (TREDA) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the NTPC to carry out the feasibility study for the floating power plant. NTPC operates a 100-MW floating solar power project at Ramagundam in Telangana.
Under the study, NTPC will examine the area of the waterbody required to be taken up for the plant, identification of local transfer stations and forest clearance for setting up the state’s first renewable energy plant. The company is expected to complete the feasibility study which will cost Rs 450 crore in a couple of months.
NTPC is the largest power utility company in India and has presence in Coal, Gas, Solar PV, Hydro and Wind Power Generation and Coal Mining.
