Solar powered Deep Bore Wells are being done in remote areas and non-cluster Deep Borewells where 1853 nos are completed
Priority is being given to the blocks having less than 35% of irrigation
Keeping in view the need of sustainable irrigation in the State, the EFC approved for a new scheme “Exploitation of Ground Water through Deep Bore Wells with Solar Pumping System” for implementation of 12,500 solar based Deep Bore Wells for 5 years from 2021-22 to 2025-26, each year 2,500 Nos for IP creation of 62,500 hectares with an outlay of Rs.493 Cr.
Projects are taken up in remote hard rock areas of 256 blocks in 26 districts where conventional Grid power supply is not available
Tender process has been initiated to take up around 2780 feasible Solar Deep BWs on pilot basis against applications received through online mode covering 31 blocks of 9 districts (Bolangir, Gajapati, Kalahandi, Kandhamal, Koraput, Malkangiri, Nabarangpur, Rayagada&Sundargarh) in remote areas where conventional grid power supply is not available or remotely available (beyond 0.30 Km) & 100 Km aerial distance from seashore
