It covers an area of 56 square kilometers and has a total installed capacity of 2,245 megawatts (MW), making it India's largest and the 11th-largest solar park in the world as of 2024.

[5] The park contributes to India's renewable energy goals and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions by an estimated 4 million tons per year.

The RRECL identified Bhadla, a remote area in the Phalodi tehsil of Phalodi district, as a suitable site for solar power generation due to its high solar irradiance, low population density, and availability of government-owned land.

The park also helps India meet its commitments under the Paris Agreement to reduce its carbon intensity by 33-35% by 2030.

[10] The park has also reduced the dependence on fossil fuels and avoided about 4 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year.
