This project is carried out under a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Collector of Dharashiv. It focuses on studying 2–8 MW scale solar plants connected to agricultural feeders (11 kV) under the MSKVY 2.0 scheme (~PM-KUSUM Component C), which aims to enable daytime power supply to farmers while maximising the existing transmission and distribution infrastructure capacities.
The study examines the impact of this scheme on key stakeholders including farmers, distribution companies, and PV plant developers. It involves analysing the performance and operation of representative plants.
The project also reviews guidelines related to various stages such as project award, implementation, and dispute resolution. Based on these analyses, the study seeks to provide insights and recommendations to improve project implementation and overall outcomes.
