Multinational developers are winning solar projects in India by bidding at extremely low tariffs to make a beginning in the Indian market, but with little appetite to bid at the same low levels again, according to a prominent industry figure.
Indian conglomerate Adani Group and solar developer Azure Power have both been awarded 50MW of capacity with winning bids of INR 4.78/kWh (US$0.07) in the 100MW solar auction in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.
