TGREDCO, the Telangana Renewable Energy Development Corporation, is the nodal agency, with TGSPDCL and TGNPDCL handling distribution and evacuation, and TGERC setting the applicable tariff.
Telangana supplies farmers with free power, and that commitment costs the state a great deal every year. It is one of the clearest reasons the state has an active interest in distributed solar generation: every unit produced near where it is consumed eases a subsidy burden that grows with demand. For landowners, PM Kusum Telangana translates that policy interest into a straightforward opportunity — host a grid-connected plant on land that is not earning much and collect contracted income from it.
Rayax develops land-based PM Kusum projects across Telangana. We assess your plot against the criteria that actually decide viability, handle TGREDCO registration, coordinate evacuation approval, and build plants suited to the state's rocky terrain and demanding summer temperatures.
The PM Kusum Yojana Telangana is implemented by TGREDCO, with TGSPDCL and TGNPDCL as distribution companies and TGERC as tariff regulator. Because agricultural power is already free in Telangana, land-based generation is where the genuine opportunity lies for landowners here.
Registration is handled by TGREDCO (Telangana Renewable Energy Development Corporation) through the TGREDCO PM Kusum portal, with TGSPDCL and TGNPDCL managing evacuation and metering, and TGERC (Telangana Electricity Regulatory Commission) setting the applicable tariff. Application windows open periodically and are usually capacity-capped, so preparing documentation in advance is worthwhile.
Rayax designs for Telangana's specific site conditions rather than applying a generic template. Rocky and shallow-soil terrain changes foundation design and construction cost materially, and getting that wrong at the estimate stage produces exactly the kind of overrun that damages a project's economics. We assess ground conditions properly, manage TGREDCO documentation, coordinate with TGSPDCL or TGNPDCL for evacuation approval, and use tier-1 solar panels rated for Telangana summer temperatures.
Own land in Telangana that yields poorly? Request a free PM Kusum Telangana viability assessment. Tell us your mandal, plot size and rough distance to the nearest sub-station, and we will assess whether solar makes sense there — including the ground conditions that affect what it would cost to build.

For land-based projects, yes — the two are separate propositions. Free power concerns what you pay to consume electricity; a solar plant concerns what you earn by generating it. If you have land yielding a poor agricultural return, hosting a plant creates an income stream that free power does not affect either way.
Aadhaar, pattadar passbook or a registered lease, land records for the plot, an active bank account, and details of the nearest sub-station and its available capacity. Rayax prepares the technical documentation.
Nalgonda, Mahbubnagar, Vikarabad and Medak are strong candidates, since rocky and shallow-soil land there gives poor agricultural returns while being entirely suitable for solar. Their proximity to the Hyderabad load centre also helps evacuation viability.
There is no standard price list. Terrain has an outsized effect here — rocky ground raises foundation costs relative to flat alluvial sites — alongside capacity, evacuation distance and the applicable TGERC tariff. Rayax assesses ground conditions before quoting.
Yes. Title remains with you throughout the project term under all three participation routes, and the land reverts to unrestricted use afterwards.
