MGS Supporting large solar project in India
3.24 MWp PM KUSUM SOLAR PROJECT
Overview
The project is a 3.24 MWp direct current (DC) and 2.7 MW alternating current (AC) ground mounted PV plant in Semli, near Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, developed under the Government of India's Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (PM KUSUM) Component C feeder level solarisation scheme.
Supporting Partner
MG Sustainable Engineering AB, a Swedish renewable energy consulting company, has supported Svrn AB in the delivery of its first demonstrator solar photovoltaic (PV) project in India.
Highlights of the project
MG Contribution
MG Sustainable Engineering AB has supported SVRN AB in the delivery of its first demonstrator solar photovoltaic (PV) project in India. The project is a 3.24 MWp direct current (DC) and 2.7 MW alternating current (AC) ground mounted PV plant in Semli, near Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, developed under the Government of India’s Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (PM KUSUM) Component C feeder level solarisation scheme.
Progress of the project
The project is led by Svrn AB and executed on the ground by Svrn India Private Limited. Site progress shows civil foundations, galvanised fixed tilt mounting structures, installed PV modules, boundary fencing, access infrastructure, and DC cable trenching already in place. The current target commissioning date is 15 June 2026.
Impact of the project
Under PM KUSUM Component C, solar generation is connected to agricultural feeders to increase daytime renewable power availability for farming loads. For the Ujjain project, the system architecture combines 3.24 MWp DC capacity, 2.7 MW AC export capacity, fixed tilt module structures, and feeder level grid evacuation.
Over its 25-year operating life, the asset is expected to supply clean electricity to agricultural feeders in Madhya Pradesh, reduce fossil-linked grid consumption, and create local construction and operations and maintenance (O&M) employment.
Collaboration milestone
For Svrn AB, the Ujjain project is a proof of execution asset for its Nordic India renewable energy platform. It is financed, under construction, and backed by a long-term government-linked programme structure, creating an important reference project as SVRN moves from early-stage development into operation of Indian solar assets.
For MG Sustainable Engineering AB, the project reflects its role in enabling bankable solar PV development across geographies. Supporting projects where engineering discipline, contracted renewable generation, and rural energy impact meet is central to MG Sustainable Engineering’s work.
MG Sustainable Engineering congratulates Dr. Avi Saini, Natasha Rauns and the wider Svrn AB and Svrn India Private Limited teams on this milestone and looks forward to seeing the plant energised in June 2026.
