MCD plans rooftop solar installations on 989 municipal buildings

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) plans to install rooftop solar power systems on 989 municipal buildings to reduce reliance on conventional power sources and lower electricity expenses.

The project will be executed in collaboration with NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam (NVVN), a wholly-owned subsidiary of NTPC, under the RESCO model. The civic body estimates the potential for generating 10 to 15 MW of solar energy across the selected buildings, subject to a detailed investment-grade audit. Currently, MCD has 574 solar photovoltaic (PV) installations with a cumulative capacity of 13.25 MWp.

Between 2022 and 2024, 26 rooftop plants totaling 1.08 MWp were commissioned at a levelised tariff of Rs 4.72 per kWh. With NVVN holding a spare capacity of 10–15 MW from projects on Delhi Police buildings, MCD aims to fast-track deployment. The new installations are expected to offer a tariff range of Rs 4.25 to Rs 4.92 per unit—more cost-effective than proposals by IPGCL.

The plan will be tabled at the upcoming MCD House meeting.
