In an apparent bid to diversify its power supply mix toward renewable energy sources, BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd (BRPL) will buy half the power generated by the 16-mw, municipal solid waste-based, power plant being set up by the Timarpur-Okhla Waste Management Company Private Limited (TOWMCL) in Delhi.
BRPL on Wednesday signed a 25-year power purchase agreement with TOWMCL to this effect, the discom said in a statement. ?Under the terms of the agreement, BRPL will procure 50% of the exportable electricity that will be generated by the under construction 16 mw ?waste to energy? integrated power plant in Okhla. BRPL will procure power at a Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission- approved tariff rate, determined by a competitive bidding process?, Gopal Saxena, CEO, BRPL said.
