Azure
says
the
plant,
at
Nagaur,
will
be
the
largest
PV
project
on
a
single
site
to
be
built
under
India’s
National
Solar
Mission
(NSM)
programme.
It
will
be
an
enlargement
of
the
power
group’s
existing
5MW
facility
at
Nagaur,
which
was
commissioned
last
year.
The
40MW
plant
will
sell
electricity
at
8.21
rupees/kWh
($0.15/kWh)
to
NVVN,
the
body
that
contracts
power
under
the
NSM.
According
to
Azure,
this
reflects
a
steady
fall
in
prices
that
is
taking
solar
towards
grid
parity
in
India,
which
it
expects
to
reach
in
2017.
