Open Access Solar Plants

Bringing a New and Brighter Future to India!

When an industry needs large amounts of energy but lacks an empty roof or ground-level space for a solar plant on their property, the team at Sunkind offers off-site commercial solar energy installations via the open-access solar power system.

Without requiring on-site installations, our creative solution enables industries to access clean, renewable solar energy produced by the most efficient off-site solar plants.

Types of Open-access Solar Plants

When you are looking for an open-access solar power plant for your industry in India, the Electricity Act of 2003 established rules for trade in the power industry.
Open-access solar power is categorised into the following categories depending on the location of the buyer and seller organisations:

Interstate open-access solar plant

The parties involved in this arrangement are from different states.

They must abide by the rules set forth by the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC).

Under interstate open access solar power, getting the rights may be granted for a short, medium, or long tenure.

Intrastate open-access solar plant

The parties involved in this arrangement are both from the same state

Regulations set forth by the State Electricity Regulatory Commission (SERC) are followed

It can be categorised as Short Term, Medium Term, and Long Term, varying depending on the legislation of the individual states

Let’s get into an open-access solar plant setup

Solar Energy Generator

A solar developer or corporation sets up a solar power project, which might be a solar farm or large-scale solar energy plant. The project is grid-connected and produces electricity from solar power.

Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)

The consumers and solar power providers sign into a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) that defines the conditions of the partnership. The PPA contains information about the cost of electricity, how long the agreement will last, and additional terms and conditions.

Electricity Transmission

The grid receives the electricity produced by the solar power plant either by means of a particular connection or by using the existing power distribution and transmission network.

Banking and Wheeling Grid Connection

Open-access customers receive their solar power from the power plant by using the current power transmission and distribution network. Furthermore, clients have the option to bank or credit any additional power produced by the solar power plant for later consumption.

It benefits commercial and industrial customers by providing a steady supply of electricity at reasonable prices, and it also strengthens the power markets industry. Open access enables consumers to achieve their Renewable Purchase Obligations (RPOs). Open-access solar power plants eliminate the space limits of rooftop solar panels, making sustainable energy available to businesses with a limited area.

Q2. What are the types of open-access solar plants based on duration?

There are three different kinds of open access based on their duration:

Short Term Open Access (STOA) for 3 months to 3 years
Medium Term Open Access (MTOA) for 3 to 12 years
Long Term Open Access (LTOA) for 12 to 25 years

Q3. Does Sunkind manufacture any solar plant project components?

Yes, we provide in-house manufactured solar plant project components like solar installation structures, cable trays, earthing strips, safety lifelines and more.

Q4. What important trends or advancements are Sunkind Energy practising in the solar energy industry?

In addition to working closely on open-access solar plants, we are currently starting to make designs for hybrid systems that include solar, wind, and energy storage technologies. These techniques have the aim to substantially reduce energy expenses for major manufacturing plants while offering a 24/7 power supply.

Q5. Which clients use open access in solar power plants?

The open access concept is designed for business and industrial clients who want to get their electricity right from the power source at the most affordable possible price. Under the terms of a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), the client pays for the energy that is provided to it directly from the supplier.
