In order to meet the 150 megawatt solar power target in the next 24 months, Goa Energy Development Agency (GEDA) is scouting for a consultant who can help the government set up concentrated solar power plants across the state. With Goans giving the rooftop solar plants a hard pass, the government needs to aggressively deploy utility-scale solar power plants on government land or on government buildings. A utility-scale or concentrated solar power plant generates more than 1 megawatt of power, whereas rooftop solar plants are usually smaller, generating around 1-40 kilowatts of power depending on the roof size.
