Bhopal : Madhya Pradesh has launched a solar scheme under the PM-KUSUM-C initiative, targeting landowners near power substations. This program allows farmers and developers to establish solar power plants on suitable land, offering steady income over a 25-year period through Power Purchase Agreements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The current tender calls for 1,200 MW of grid-connected solar projects, focusing on solarizing agricultural feeders to boost renewable energy use in rural areas. The initiative aims to enhance energy access while providing a new revenue stream for landowners and farmers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Landowners within roughly five kilometers of 33\/11 kV substations are encouraged to participate. The scheme supports two modes: self-development, where farmers directly build and manage solar plants, and developer mode, where companies lease land from farmers to set up the projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Financially, the program is designed to be accessible. Eligible farmers and MSMEs are exempt from the bid processing fee, although all participants must submit a bid security of \u20b9100,000 per MW. A performance bank guarantee of the same amount is required upon selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By utilizing underused land near substations, the scheme promotes sustainable development and supports Madhya Pradesh\u2019s renewable energy goals. It also offers farmers a reliable and long-term income source, helping rural communities benefit from the clean energy transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interested parties should submit bids by June 25, 2025. Technical bids will be opened on June 30, with financial bids following on July 10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
