PDCOR is preparing the Detailed Project Report (Survey, Layout, Planning, Design, Estimates & Financial Model) and providing construction supervision for massive solar developments at Soorasar and Sardarpura villages in Bikaner. The Phase I (1000 MW) DPR has been approved by MNRE-GoI, with Phase II and the 450 MW DPRs currently submitted for approval.

PDCOR prepared the DPR for this 1000 MW Solar Park, managing topographical surveys, geo-technical investigations, plot demarcation, water supply infrastructure, and power evacuation systems. PDCOR also installed approximately 1,000 boundary pillars. The project's DPR has been fully approved by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) and MNRE, GoI.

PDCOR conducted critical feasibility analyses for setting up 5/10 MW solar power projects. The role included site selection based on solar insolation data, evaluating power evacuation infrastructure, water availability, and recommending PV technology. The studies also established commercial viability by computing levelized tariffs and analyzing grid-based incentive schemes.

In 2009-10, PDCOR prepared a comprehensive "Project Bank" for RRECL to identify potential solar sites across 7 districts (Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Barmer, Bikaner, Jalore, Nagaur & Churu). The study identified 20,000 Hectares of suitable land—enough for 10,000 MW of capacity. This foundational work directly enabled over 4000 MW of solar installations across the State.
