Ayana Renewable Power and Maxeon Solar Technologies have reached commercial operations at the 192MW Bikaner 1 solar farm in Rajasthan, India.
Bikaner 1 uses nearly 398,000 performance 3 UPP solar panels supplied by Maxeon Solar Technologies.
It is forecast to produce approximately 800,000 megawatt-hours of electricity a year.
Maxeon Solar Technologies chief executive Jeff Waters said: “We’re pleased to have supplied the Bikaner 1 solar farm with our high-reliability, high-efficiency Performance 3 solar panels.
“This is the largest utility-scale project that we have supplied in India, and it is yet another example of how our utility scale customers trust Maxeon for their solar power plants around the world.
“We see major opportunities in the global power plant market, and Maxeon is well positioned to provide large-scale plant owners and operators with products that enhance the reliability and long-term energy delivery of their projects.”
Ayana Renewable Power chief executive Shivanand Nimbargi said: “At Ayana, our vision is to create significant renewable power generating capacity across India, complimenting it with an agenda that reaches out to the communities of our nearby site locations where such capacity will be created.
“We are happy to choose Maxeon that can reliably deliver a world-class, better performing, highly reliable panel technology with a proven track record.
“Bikaner 1 is an important milestone that will allow us to meet the objective of a faster transition to low carbon power generation and contributing towards the development of local communities in parallel.”
