In the Tamil Nadu district of Tirunelveli, a 74 MWp open access solar power plant was built by Sunsure Energy last year in November.

Earlier, in 2017, Ludhiana Beverages Private Limited, an authorized franchise bottler of Coca-Cola had also commissioned a 100 KW solar power plant, with an annual power generation capability of 1,32,000 kW.

The spread of renewable energy deals in more and more categories of the C&I segment is a welcome expansion of the option to broader sections of industry in India. As other firms in the segment follow, each deal usually serves as the door opener for many more such deals. This is even more vital in states like UP which are still finding their feet when it comes to adopting renewable energy potential.

In the short term, there is actually a case perhaps for the government to encourage sharing of knowledge and experience for these new adopters for others to follow.
