Kerala procures 300 MW solar via SECI for 25 years to address peak demand

Kerala State Electricity Board will procure 300 MW of solar power through SECI under a 25-year agreement at ₹6.07/unit, with supply starting in 2028. The deal targets peak demand but will not alleviate the current power crisis. It signals a long-term shift toward renewable capacity in a state facing supply constraints.
