Narendra Modi inaugurates Asia s biggest solar power plant in Kankrej, Gujarat
Oct 14, 2011 Gandhinagar, Friday: Even as Gujarat Government has
decided to harness renewable sources of energy to maximum possible
extent to solve the nation’s power shortage, Chief Minister
Narendra Modi today said the State is set to become the ‘Solar
Capital of the World’.
He was inaugurating the 30 MW solar power project in near Gunthaw
ada village in Kankrej taluka in Banaskantha district, bordering
the Rann of Kutch. The plant set up by Mozer Baer Green Energy
Company on 320-acre at a cost of Rs.465-crore in the private sector
was commissioned in four months.
While the Centre could not start any solar plant even after
announcing its solar power policy, Mr. Modi said, Gujarat has set
up four such projects, including one at Charnaka.
Mr. Modi said the world’s largest solar park combining the vast
stretches of land with ample supply of sunrays is also coming up in
the region. The initiative should go a long way in solving the coal
shortage. He said that Gujarat has already succeeded converting
disasters into opportunities, as Kutch became the fastest growing
district in the country during the last decade. Gujarat’s 1,600-km
long coastline is humming with a number of seaports. And now it is
converting the arid Kutch, Banaskantha and Patan districts into
prosperous power producing regions.
He recalled that Gujarat was a power deficient state but today
distributing 24-hour electricity to all the 18,000-odd villages in
the state. With proper conservation and management of water and
electricity, he said, Jyoti Gram Yojna has changed the
socio-economic conditions of Gujarat, creating a mass awareness
too.
While the Centre has been reduced to a power-corrupt government
amidst zero development, Mr. Modi said, Gujarat has shown how power
could be utilized for all all round growth. The state is undertaken
new initiatives in recycling biomass and agro-waste.
Moser Baer Company’s president Dipak Puri and project chairman
Ratul Puri said the project should provide electricity to 50,000
villagers. They praised the Gujarat Government’s proactive
policies.
Others present on the occasion included Social Justice Minister
Fakirbhai Vaghela, Ministers of State Liladhar Vaghela and Parbat
Patel, ex-MP Haribhai Chaudhry, MLAs and office-bearers.
