Kamuthi Solar Power Project is a solar photovoltaic power generating station at Kamuthi, 90 km from Madurai, in the state of Tamil Nadu, India.[1] This project has been commissioned by Adani Power.[2]
With a generating capacity of 648 MW at a single location[3] it is billed as the world's largest single location solar project.[4] [5] The project was completed on 21 September 2016[6] with an investment of around ₹ 4,550 crore. The solar plant consists of 2,500,000 solar modules and 27,000 metres of structures. It consist of 576 inverters and 154 transformer and almost 7500 km of cables.[7][8][9]
Panels occupy 1270 acres of land. 30,000 tonnes of galvanised steel were used. About 8500 personnel worked on average installing about 11 MW in a day to set up the plant in stipulated time. Given the solar resource of around 5.5 kWh/m2,day [10] an annual generation of 1.3 TWh/yr may be possible.
