Paramount Solar Park is a solar energy park in Patoda, Beed subdivision of Beed district in the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is the largest private-sector solar park approved by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission in India.[2] The park is spread over 2,600 acres (11 km2). The park is proposed to have a capacity of 500 MW.[3] Maharashtra has received bids for tariff of Rs 4.42 per kWh in 2016, and it is expected the rates will decrease by the time K. P. Power/Paramount Solar Park is completed.[4]
