3. Bhadla Solar park is largest solar park located in the thar desert of rajasthan , india . it is the largest solar power plant in world now. It is a gridconnected  photovoltaic solar park spread over an area of 56 square kilometers in bhadla the tehsil of  Jhodhpur district of Rajasthan.   The  solar park construction was started in July 2015 and the first phase was commissioned in October 2018. The second phase is expected to be commissioned in April 2019, while phases three and four are expected to be commissioned by March 2019. Rajasthan Renewable Energy Corporation (RREC) has allotted the land for the execution of the project in co-ordination with the state government. RSPDCL leased 1,800ha of land to develop phase two of the project. Rajasthan has the highest solar irradiation of 5.72kWh/m²/day making it a perfect site for solar park development. The country also has the advantage of maximum solar power potential of 142GW in the country with vast unused barren and affordable land. about

4. Introduction The first phase  of the solar park has seven solar power plants with a combined capacity of 75MW, while phase two has ten solar power plants with a combined capacity of 680MW. Phases three and four will have ten solar power plants each, with combined capacities of 1,000MW and 500MW respectively. National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) and Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) are responsible for assigning developers for the solar power plants. The two organizations have signed 25-year power purchase agreement with developers. The solar power plants under the third phase are being developed by Hero Future Energies (300MW), Softbank Group (200MW), ACME Solar (200MW), and SB Energy (300MW).Azure Power (200MW), ReNew Solar Power (50MW), Phelan Energy Group (50MW), Avaada Power (100MW), and SB Energy (100MW) are undertaking development of the solar power plants under the fourth phase.

5. Power transmission The power evacuation system of the solar park will be developed by Powergrid Corporation of India (PGCIL) and state-owned transmission company TRANSCO and delivered to the state electricity boards. PGCIL will establish 765/400/220kV grid substations and pooling stations at Bhadla . A transmission system with 765kV and 400kV double-circuit line along with two 400kV and four 220kV line bays for solar parks interconnection will also be laid. TRANSCO will also develop 400/220/132kV grid substations for power evacuation.

6. Project Participants I n Phase I in 2017,  NTPC Limited  auctioned 420 MW to several developers including Forum of Finland. .In Phase II,  Solar Energy Corporation of India  (SECI) auctioned 250 MW which includes the under construction  AMP Energy Bhadla Solar Power Plant  and  NTPC Bhadla Solar Power Plant . In Phase III on May 11, 2017,  ACME Power  won 200 MW and  Softbank Group  (SBG) won 300 MW. In Phase IV on May 9, 2017,  Phelan Energy Group  won 50 MW,  Avaada Energy  won 100 MW and SBG Cleantech consortium won 100 MW. SECI tendered bids for the remaining 750 MW in June 2017 . After its completion in December 2018, the solar park achieved a total installed capacity of 2,055 MW, making it the largest solar park in the world as of 2023.

7. FINANCING Construction of the new transmission lines from the solar park to the national grid is being financed under the Rajasthan Renewable Energy Transmission Investment Programme (RRETIP), which is co- ordinated by the Government of India, the Asian Development Bank (ADB), and the Clean Technology Fund. Bhadla solar park ha s tatal value of 1.4 billion . RRETIP has rendered technical assistance to plan infrastructure and implement phase two of the project and to plan and review phases three and four.

8. Each 250MW block within the Rewa solar park features photovoltaic solar panels mounted on fixed frame aluminum structures. The inverters near the solar installations are connected to 2MVA 440V/33kV ONAN transformers. The pooling station within the solar park comprises three 33/220 kV 100MVA step-up transformers. A 220/400kv grid sub-station located on an 18ha-plot within the project premises receives the electricity output of the solar park and transmits the same to the National Grid through a 32km long 400kV transmission line connecting the Vindhyachal -Jabalpur transmission line. bhadla SOLAR PARK MAKE-UP

9. Key takeaways It has been fully operational since 2021, and it is helping to lesson indias reliance on fossial fuels. with a capacity of 2245MW , it can provide elecricity to 1 million households. It provedly boasts indias remarkable adoption of affordable clean and green energy.

10. challenges The Bhadla Solar Park has faced some challenges due to its location and scale. One of the main challenges has been dust accumulation on the solar panels, which reduces their efficiency and output. The park is also located in an arid region that experiences frequent  dust storms and sandstorms .

11. Key contracters Rays power experts provides engineering , procurement,and construction(EPC) services. In june 2018,Ecoppia inked a deal with SB Energy to deploy 2000 robotic solar panel cleaning machines across inevery location. During the project development ,technical help was provuded by Meghraj capital advisors private limited, RangaSutra,and Urmul marusthali bunkar vikas samiti .
