Trident has successfully completed a solar power project in Budhni, Madhya Pradesh, with a total capacity of 8.87 MWp. This project is divided into two phases: the first phase, which has already been commissioned, produces 5.48 MWp while the second phase, expected to be operational soon, will contribute an additional 3.39 MWp.
