Hyderabad: Andhra Pradesh government on Tuesday fixed the benchmark price for purchase of solar power at Rs 6.49 per unit. The Cabinet Sub-Committee on Power fixed the benchmark price at its meeting on Tuesday. The state government has invited bids from interested parties for generating solar power in view of the unprecedented electricity crisis.
"We hope to finalise the bids within a month now that the price has been fixed," Finance Minister Anam Ramanarayana Reddy said after the meeting. The state government plans to generate 2000 MW of solar power to tide over the crisis, caused due to non-availability of traditional fuels like coal and gas besides depletion in reservoirs that led to a drastic fall in hydro power generation.
