The Vadodara Municipal Corporation laid out a plan for the construction of solar panel dome at Akota-Dandiabazaar link bridge in 2014. Energy Minister, Saurab Patel had set up the foundation for the plan. The project is India’s first ever solar plant established over a bridge. The bridge is 2 kilometers long with a dome covering an area of 280m wherein it will have a semi- circular base on which the solar panels will be installed. The primary aim of the plan is to generate and supply electricity to streetlights and ensure their functioning across the city. The complete plan costs approximately 25.5 crores with a generation of average 3MW solar energy every day as per media reports.
