Title: 10 MW Solar Photovoltaic Power Plant in Rajkot, Gujarat (India) URL Source: https://registry.goldstandard.org/projects/details/2636 Markdown Content: Description The project activity is the installation of a 10 MW solar photovoltaic power plant in Rajkot district in the state of Gujarat. The project activity has been implemented by Green Infra Solar Energy Limited (GISEL). The purpose of the project activity is to generation clean power utilising solar energy and to sell it to Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (GUVNL) through a long term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). The Project is a non-polluting solar power generation project that seeks to export green power to the NEWNE grid that otherwise primarily receives electricity from fossil fuel fired thermal power plants2 . The project activity exports power to the state grid via a dedicated substation installed in the project premises. A set of main and check meters have been installed at the project site to measure export and import of electricity from the project activity. The difference between export and import, i.e. net export is then used for billing purposes. The estimated emission reductions for the first year are 16,994 tCO2e (with the annual average as 16,4973 tCO2e). The total GHG emission reductions for the chosen crediting period are 164,976 tCO2e, taking into account an annual degradation factor of 0.7%.
