We are focused on solar power generation capacity addition and micro grid concept and we will continue to contribute till the real power sufficiency is achieved.

The ongoing power scenario in the country is good but it is only restricted demand, believes Sanjay Garudapally, Director – Business Development, Rays Power Infra.”Power surplus is a relative term. Yes, India is poised to have over 1 per cent power in excess to the demand in FY 17. Even now, once can see over 3.5GW is the surplus at power exchanges. But when you talk about this demand, this is restricted demand. Unrestricted actual demand is at least 25 per cent more than the current demand,” he says.
However, it has been a transformation, generation has gone up, energy efficiency and demand side management has helped in checking the unproductive demand. Solar capacity addition has played its part in meeting the morning peak.
