The plant has Power Purchase Agreement (‘PPA’) with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) at Rs 2.82/kwh.

With the successful commissioning of this plant, the company has an operational wind generation capacity of 497 MW. AGEL has total renewable capacity of 14,815 MW including 11,470 MW that have been awarded and are different stages of implementation.
