🌞 PM KUSUM 2.0 – Component A (Feeder Level Solarisation) | Rajasthan ⚡🌾
Great news for farmers and rural communities in Rajasthan! Under PM KUSUM 2.0, Component A – Feeder Level Solarisation is transforming agriculture power supply with clean solar energy 🌿
📍 What is Feeder Level Solarisation?
Under this scheme, agriculture feeders (electric lines supplying power to farms) are solarized by setting up grid-connected solar power plants. This ensures reliable daytime electricity for irrigation.
📍 Key Benefits for Rajasthan:
✅ Daytime Power Supply ☀️
Farmers get electricity during the day – no more late-night irrigation stress!
✅ Reliable & Stable Supply
Reduces power cuts and improves voltage quality in rural areas
✅ No Investment by Farmers
Solar plants are installed by developers / DISCOMs – farmers benefit without spending money
✅ Extra Income Opportunity 💰
Local landowners, Panchayats, or farmer groups can lease land for solar plants and earn regular income
✅ Reduced DISCOM Losses
Cuts transmission losses and improves power efficiency
📍 Who Can Participate?
Individual landowners (to lease land)
Farmer groups / cooperatives
Panchayats
Private developers (selected through bidding)
📍 Project Details:
Solar plants installed near substations (generally 0.5 MW – 2 MW or more)
Power generated is supplied directly to agriculture feeders
Long-term power purchase agreements (PPA) with DISCOMs
📍 How It Helps Farmers:
🌱 Better irrigation planning
⚡ Consistent electricity supply
💧 Improved crop productivity
💸 Savings on diesel pumps
📢 Why It’s Important for Rajasthan:
With high solar potential and large farming areas, Rajasthan is a leading state in adopting feeder solarisation under PM KUSUM 2.0.
🌍 Clean Energy + Farmer Prosperity = Sustainable Future
