Chhattisgarh runs a substantial industrial load — steel, cement, aluminium and mining all draw heavily on the state grid. That demand is the backdrop to PM Kusum Chhattisgarh: generation built near where power is consumed has real value here, and landowners in the central plains districts sit in a good position to supply it.
Rayax develops land-based PM Kusum projects across Chhattisgarh, focusing on the plains belt where grid infrastructure is strongest and land is workable. We assess viability, handle CREDA registration, coordinate evacuation approval with CSPDCL, and operate the plant for its full term.
The PM Kusum Yojana Chhattisgarh is implemented by CREDA, with CSPDCL as the distribution company and CSERC as tariff regulator. CREDA is among India's more experienced state renewable agencies, which generally translates into cleaner and more predictable processing of land-based applications.
Registration is handled by CREDA (Chhattisgarh State Renewable Energy Development Agency) through the CREDA PM Kusum portal, with CSPDCL managing evacuation and metering, and CSERC (Chhattisgarh State Electricity Regulatory Commission) setting the applicable tariff. Application windows open periodically and are usually capacity-capped, so preparing documentation in advance is worthwhile.
Rayax checks land classification carefully at the outset in Chhattisgarh, because a significant share of land here carries forest classification that complicates or blocks solar development entirely — and finding that out after registration wastes months. We handle CREDA documentation, coordinate with CSPDCL on evacuation, prepare the DPR for lenders, and build to MNRE standards using tier-1 solar panels, with service coverage that extends properly across the state.

The central plains — Raipur, Durg, Bilaspur, Janjgir-Champa and Mungeli — are the strongest candidates, because grid infrastructure is better developed there and the land is workable for construction.
Usually not, or not without clearances that make most projects impractical. This is worth checking before anything else in Chhattisgarh, since forest classification is common here. Rayax runs that check as the first step of any viability assessment.
There is no standard price list. Cost depends on capacity, terrain, evacuation distance and the applicable CSERC tariff. Lower land values in the state can help project economics where a lease is involved. Rayax provides an itemised assessment per site.
Aadhaar, B1 and P2 khasra records or a registered lease, an active bank account, and details of the nearest sub-station and its available capacity.
Yes. Title remains in your name for the full project term regardless of which participation route you choose, and the land returns to unrestricted use at the end.
