RMC Switchgears Limited has successfully commissioned 8.8 MWac of a 46 MWac solar EPC project awarded by the Maharashtra State Power Generation Company Limited (MAHAGENCO) at Shevgaon in Ahmednagar district.
The commissioned capacity represents a project value of ₹38.49 crore out of the total contract value of ₹153.98 crore. The project is being executed under a complete turnkey EPC arrangement. According to the company, the balance capacity is progressing as planned, with the full 46 MWac expected to be completed within the current financial year.
The solar project, located in a largely rural region of Maharashtra, is expected to improve the reliability and stability of power supply for farmers, small businesses, and local households.
Once fully operational, it will contribute to the state’s renewable energy capacity, support irrigation needs, reduce dependence on diesel-powered pumps, and enhance overall living standards in nearby villages.
RMC Switchgears stated that the commissioning milestone reflects its engineering strength, construction quality, and project management capabilities. The project incorporates advanced crystalline solar PV modules, robust electrical systems, and infrastructure designed in line with MAHAGENCO’s technical specifications. The company’s engineering and on-ground project teams coordinated across land preparation, module installation, electrical integration, and grid-readiness activities to ensure timely progress.
Commenting on the development, Ankit Agrawal, CEO and Whole-Time Director of RMC Switchgears Limited, said the commissioning of the initial 8.8 MWac underscores the company’s focus on timely and high-quality execution. He added that the project not only demonstrates RMC’s technical capabilities but also delivers meaningful benefits to local communities while supporting Maharashtra’s broader transition towards renewable energy.
