West Kallada Floating Solar Project

The West Kallada Floating Solar Project is a landmark renewable energy initiative in the Kollam district of Kerala. The 50 MW floating solar plant is a collaboration involving NHPC, a Navratna enterprise, and West Kallada Non-Conventional Energy Promoters Pvt. Ltd. (WKNCEPPL), which represents the local landowners. Around 300 acres of water-logged, uncultivated paddy fields in West Kallada were reserved for the project. The West Kallada project will generate renewable power in an environmentally responsible manner, ensuring minimal land impact while creating long-term benefits for local communities.
