The park is estimated to cost about INR 25,000 crores, and will create employment opportunities for about 20, 000 people. These large plants will be best positioned to take advantage of the large gigawatt-sized solar tenders in India. They will not only go a long way to help address the power conditions but will also help in achieving India’s solar target and ‘Make in India’ dream.
The site is best suited for the construction of the plant as it receives ample amount of sunlight and has sufficient land availability. Since the plant will be built on a special economic zone, there will be no need for free land acquisition. The Dholera Solar park has caught the attention of a large number of solar developers and manufacturers. The developers will be selected through bidding as per the guidelines of the government. Land and infrastructure will be provided to manufacturers who are interested in manufacturing solar cells, panels, storage units. smart grid solutions etc.
