Hartek Solar has been awarded a contract by SJVN Green Energy Ltd. to build a 22 MW floating solar PV power project at Nangal Pond in the Bilaspur district of Himachal Pradesh.

This project, upon commissioning, will become North India's largest floating solar power plant. The project has been awarded by SJVN Green Energy Ltd.

The scope of the project includes complete EPC of the floating solar plant with 15 MW AC and comprehensive operation and maintenance.

The project is expected to have a DC capacity of approximately 22 MW and generate 33 million units of power output per year. This will significantly contribute to India's decarbonisation efforts and help the country achieve its renewable target of installing 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030.

The floating solar project is also expected to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 763,000 tonnes annually, making a significant contribution to the nation-building effort.

Hartek Solar recently commissioned a 2 MW floating solar plant for CREST in Chandigarh. The 2 MW project's foundation stone was laid by the President of India in October 2022.

Commenting on the project, Hartek Solar's Founder and CEO, Simarpreet Singh, said, "We are delighted to have been awarded this project, which is a significant step towards decarbonisation and meeting India's renewable target of 2030. We are committed to providing clean energy solutions that contribute to the nation-building effort and are proud to be a part of this project."
