Ground-mounted solar energy project: The construct of a 6MW solar power plant was erected in the village vicinity to utilize solar energy in producing clean electricity. Solar Rooftops: More than 1,300 rooftops installed solar panels enabling homes to consume their own energy while feeding the surplus consumption back into the grid.
With the village consumption merely one to two megawatts, the excess is added to the transmission grid. Government schools, bus stops and utility buildings in the village of Modhera in Gujarat, India, now run entirely on solar power. “There are three major components to this entire project.
The Solar powered village will have over 1000 solar panels, that have been installed on the village houses, generating electricity round the clock for the villagers to provide solar electricity at zero cost.
