Kurnool already hosts the state’s largest solar installation, the 1 GW Kurnool solar park in Orvakal
The Andhra Pradesh government has approved land allocation for two large-scale solar parks with a combined capacity of 2 GW, further strengthening the state’s renewable energy push.
The projects will be developed in the Kadapa and Kurnool districts, with each site planned to generate 1 GW of solar power. The land will be transferred to Andhra Pradesh Solar Power Corporation Private Limited (APSPCL), which will lease it to private developers under a 33-year agreement.
According to reports, the Kadapa site will span approximately 466.5 acres, while the Kurnool project—located in Orvakal mandal—will cover around 737.7 acres.
Kurnool already hosts the state’s largest solar installation, the 1 GW Kurnool solar park in Orvakal, which has been operational since 2017, making it a key hub for solar energy development in Andhra Pradesh.
