Madhya Pradesh’s 750MW Rewa Solar Power Project is spread over an area of 1,590 acres and is operated by Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Ltd. Developed by Mahindra Renewables, Solengeri Power and ACME Solar Holdings, the Rewa solar power plant is one of the major power suppliers to the Delhi Metro.
This is India’s first and only solar project until now to be funded from the Clean Technology Fund and also India’s only solar power plant to obtain a concessional loan from the World Bank’s International Finance Corporation. Riding on an investment of Rs. 2,800 crore (approx. $370 million), the commissioning of this plant reportedly saved Delhi Metro Rs 1,400 crore (approx. $185 million) over its project life.
