The project complies with domestic content requirement (DCR) since the modules used in this project are manufactured in India. The Amplus had won this project in a competitive bidding under developer mode where for the first time the VGF (Viability Gap funding) was negative.

As part of its commitment given to the Government, HAL is in the process of establishing 50 MW capacity renewable energy in next two years.  The Company plans to install 35.8 MW capacity solar plants.  Out of this, 9.275 MW will be from roof-top solar systems. Approximately 15 MW capacity will be from wind power plants. In July this year, HAL had taken a lead in commissioning 6.3 MW wind power plant at Harapanahalli in Davangere district of Karnataka to meet the Company's captive power needs in Bengaluru.

HAL is also evaluating the proposal for setting up 150MW capacity solar power plants in partnership with BEL and MDL. The plants will be set up in the land owned by Ordnance Factories across India. The power produced will be sold to respective Ordnance Factories.
