Bundelkhand now accounts for 500 MW daily of the solar energy produced by the state and is part of an ambitious plan by the Yogi government to develop the region into a solar power hub. The solar energy policy in 2017 was created to promote private participation in the field of solar energy. Under this, a solar park was established and solar power was given open access to third-party sales. Under the incentive provisions, along with the provision of online single window clearance, a 100 per cent stamp duty exemption was provided for solar power projects and 100 per cent exemption in electricity duty for 10 years. Eleven private solar power companies have so far set up power stations in the region.
