Executed by SJVN Green Energy Limited (SGEL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of SJVN, this project is a significant milestone in India's renewable energy sector.
The Omkareshwar Floating Solar Project is located in the Omkareshwar Floating Solar Park, situated in the Khandwa district of Madhya Pradesh. This park is the largest floating solar installation in India and one of the largest in Central and Northern India.
