AHMEDABAD: Adani Hybrid Energy Jaisalmer One Limited (AHEJOL), a subsidiary of Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL) announced the commissioning of a 390 megawatt (MW) wind-solar hybrid power plant in Rajasthan's Jaisalmer.
The plant is the first ever wind and solar hybrid power generation plant in India and comes at a time when the country - which is largely dependent on thermal power to meet energy needs - is battling a stinging coal and power shortage.
The new plant has a power purchase agreement (PPA) with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) with tariff at Rs 2.69 per KWH, well below the average power procurement cost (APPC) at national level.
