The Uttar Pradesh State Industrial Development Authority (UPSIDA) has launched a solar energy initiative aimed at powering industrial zones across the state.
As part of this effort, UPSIDA has identified 13 sites for the installation of solar power plants. These include Surajpur site-5, export promotion industrial park in Gautam Budh Nagar, trans Delhi signature city in Ghaziabad, special economic zone in Moradabad, as well as sites in Baghpat, Agra, Mathura, Jhansi, Prayagraj, and Shahjahanpur. These zones have been selected for their industrial significance and will be developed as solar-enabled hubs.
