Chandrababu selected Kuppam As A pilot project For 100% solar power supply

Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has selected his own constituency Kuppam as a pilot project for 100 percent solar power supply. Steps will be taken in Kuppam as a pilot project for 100 percent solar power supply. This decision was taken when the issues of solar villages along with the Kusum scheme being implemented by the Center were mentioned in the review conducted by the power department.

Chandrababu believes that there will be benefits in the coming days through the use of solar power. Although some investment is required at present, it is being thought that the burden on the state exchequer will be reduced in the future.

For example, the government is currently providing up to 200 units of free electricity to SC and ST communities across the state. The Andhra Pradesh government itself is paying the cost of this to the discoms. However, the AP government is thinking that if they are diverted towards solar power, the burden on the government exchequer will be reduced to some extent.

Under the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli scheme, the Center and the state governments are giving subsidies to those who make solar power arrangements. If the beneficiary bears some of the cost, the rest is provided as a subsidy.

However, the state government is planning to pay the amount to be paid by the beneficiaries of the SC and ST communities. The government is thinking that by shifting towards solar power instead of free electricity up to 200 units, although there will be some initial cost, it will save money in the coming days.

The beneficiaries who have generated solar power in this way, even if they use it for their home needs, can sell the remaining solar power to the discoms. Once solar panels are installed, there will be no problem for years to come. It is learnt that the Andhra Pradesh government is now focusing on these proposals.
