Gensol Engineering Rs 2.3 bn Solar Project win

The Gensol engineering won the bid for the development of 30 MWac (and a minimum of 40 MWdc) floating solar projects by bidding Rs 2.3 bn.

This 30 MWac capacity is spread over three thermal power stations in Jharkhand (6 MWac at Koderma) and West Bengal.

The scope of work includes design, engineering, supply, construction, testing, and commissioning of these projects along with comprehensive operation and maintenance services for 10 years after successfully commissioning the plan.

Moving on to news from the power sector, Adani Green Energy was also in focus today.

Adani Green raises US$200 m to refinance debt

Adani Green Energy received over $200 m today to restructure existing debt through its subsidiary, Adani Solar Energy AP Six.

The money will be utilized to refinance Andhra Pradesh's 350 MW solar plant.

The facility consists of project loans totaling 27,954 m Japanese yen that amortise over 16 years, with an average loan term of more than 8 years and a door-to-door tenor of 10 years.

MUFG Bank and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation both contributed equally to the project lending facility. Latham & Watkins LLP and Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas served as the transaction's legal counsel.

The facility is connected to the Tokyo Overnight Average Rate (TONA), a Japanese benchmark rate indicator that returns almost zero and emphasizes the appeal of extending the use of alternative funding sources that offer relatively low interest rates.

The refinancing arrangement is consistent with AGEL's goal to construct the debt structure in compliance with underlying asset life for its operational assets and secure long-term financing.

It is currently among the best power stocks in India.
