Waaree Renewable secures ₹114.22 crore order for 94 MW solar projects in Maharashtra
New Delhi: Waaree Renewable Technologies Limited (WRTL) has secured a Letter of Award (LOA) valued at ₹114.22 crore for engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of 94 MW AC solar photovoltaic (PV) plants across multiple locations in Maharashtra under the Mukhyamantri Saur Krishi Vahini Yojana (MSKVY) 2.0, the company said. The contract was awarded by a renewable energy generation company following a competitive bidding process. The project will be executed as part of the MSKVY 2.0 initiative launched by the Government of Maharashtra to provide daytime electricity to farmers through decentralized solar power generation. India's total installed solar capacity has crossed 97 GW as of 2024, with a target to reach 280 GW by 2030, driven by central and state-level policies and increasing private sector participation. Sunil Rathi, Executive Director, Waaree Renewable Technologies Limited, said, 'This Letter of Award is more than just a project win—it's a reaffirmation of the trust our partners place in us. At WRTL, we don't just build solar plants—we deliver certainty, speed, and scale. Whether it's a multi-megawatt utility project or a smaller distributed installation, we approach every assignment with the same precision, passion, and professionalism. Our ability to execute projects of any size with consistency and excellence is what sets us apart—and keeps our clients coming back. Through this project, we are proud to contribute meaningfully to the Mukhyamantri Saur Krishi Vahini Yojana (MSKVY) 2.0 by enabling clean, daytime electricity for farmers and supporting rural energy independence. This is how we power progress—one megawatt at a time.' WRTL said the company continues to receive repeat orders from customers across sectors and maintains a strong position in the solar EPC segment, with capabilities spanning design, procurement, construction and commissioning of solar infrastructure. The MSKVY 2.0 scheme aims to enhance rural energy access and reduce dependence on conventional energy sources through decentralised renewable power installations.

Daytime power helps women to work in fields
Mumbai: The introduction of electric power to farmers during the daytime is bringing about a change in the fields. Women are now able to chip in with farm work, something they could not contribute earlier as power supply to the fields was made only at night. Solar power generation projects with a capacity of 1,359 MW have been completed in the state, enabling 2.14 lakh farmers to start receiving daytime power supply , said chief minister Devendra Fadnavis. Currently, farmers receive electricity in two shifts, day and night, for agricultural pumps. This scheme will meet farmers' demand for daytime power supply to pumps, reducing the need for night-time farming activities and improving safety for women who might have been hesitant to work at night due to potential risks like snake bites, animal attacks, or lack of lighting. "This can lead to increased efficiency and productivity, ultimately boosting farm income and empowering women in agricultural roles," said an official from the energy department. Implementation of the scheme will be completed by Sept 2026. Under Mukhyamantri Saur Krushi Vahini Yojana - 2.0, work is underway on solar power generation projects with a capacity of 15,284 MW in the state. With a total capacity of 16,000 MW, this is the largest decentralised solar power generation project in the world. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Egypt: New Small Electric Car For Seniors.
