The facility envisages a grid connected Solar Thermal Power Plant of 1 MW capacity. This will also include a test set up that enables companies and research institutions to test the performance of different solar concentrators, coatings and materials, components and system for a Solar Thermal Power Plant. The project is being implemented by IIT Bombay and a consortium partners consisting of Tata Power, Tata Consulting Engineers, Larsen & Toubro, Clique, KIE Solatherm.
There are two solar fields on site currently, a three llops parabolic trough solar field and a two lines linear Fresnel solar field.
