Pugal Solar Park

under construction

The Pugal Solar Park is being developed in the Pugal region of Bikaner district, Rajasthan. It will be the country's first solar park to integrate a large-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) with solar power generation. The park will have a power generation capacity of 2,450 MW and a storage capacity of 5,000 MW, enabling storage of surplus solar energy for use during non-sunlight hours. The project is being developed on approximately 4,780 hectares of government land under a 'plug and play model' with necessary infrastructure facilities prepared in advance. A 765/400 KV grid substation and transmission lines are also being developed to integrate the park's electricity into the grid. The project aims to create over 1,000 employment opportunities and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by more than 200,000 tonnes annually.
