This project showcases the scale and ambition of our nation&#8217;s clean energy goals. \u201d<\/p>\n<p>During his visit, Union Minister Shri Joshi emphasized the importance of innovative solutions like floating solar technology in addressing land constraints while promoting sustainable development. He highlighted the efficiency of this approach, noting that the cooling effect of water enhances solar panel performance, thereby increasing energy output.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the Omkareshwar Floating Solar Park has commissioned a total of 278 MW. The total estimated development cost of the park is \u20b9330 crore, supported by a Central Financial Assistance of \u20b949.85 crore.<\/p>\n<p>Union Minster Joshi said that Madhya Pradesh is one of the most important States that is contributing to fulfilling the energy security of the country .He noted that the state has significantly increased its renewable energy capacity, achieving a 14-fold growth over the past 12 years, from less than 500 MW in 2012 to its current capacity. <\/p>\n<p>In his X post, Union Minister Joshi said, \u201cCongratulations to all the stakeholders, the Madhya Pradesh Government, and the Solar Power Park Developers \u2013 Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Limited, NHDC Ltd, AMP Energy Green Pvt Ltd, and SJVN Ltd \u2013 for the successful commissioning of a 278 MW Solar Park along with solar projects. This project was inaugurated last week by PM @narendramodi and is a testament to India&#8217;s unwavering commitment to sustainability goals.<\/p>\n<p>As the project moves towards full capacity, the entire 600 MW will be fully operational. It will generate more than 4600 million units of clean energy over the next 25 years. This is a remarkable achievement in our journey towards sustainable and renewable energy for the future&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delhi, Jan 4 Union Minister of New
