The U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) is supporting a 41MW hybrid solar-wind-storage project being developed by private Indian energy firm IL&FS Energy Development Company Limited (IEDCL) in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh by providing a grant to aid the plant’s technical design and planning.
The project stems from a memorandum of understanding (MoU) between IEDCL and the government of Andhra Pradesh to develop a project of 1,040MW capacity in total.
IEDCL has selected Kansas-based engineering firm Black & Veatch to carry out the technical assistance.
