Cleantech Solar commissions 24 MWp open access solar PV projects in Maharashtra, expanding its portfolio of solar, wind and hybrid power projects with a combined capacity of over 300 MWp in Maharashtra -EQ
Cleantech Solar, a leading provider of renewable energy
solutions to corporations in India and Southeast Asia, is delighted to announce the commissioning of
open access solar PV projects totalling 24 MWp at its state-of-the-art solar park in Yavatmal district
of Maharashtra. Power from these projects is being procured by leading corporates on a captive
basis to meet energy needs for their manufacturing operations in the state. These projects cater to
customers across automotive, pharmaceutical, cement, industrial equipment and chemical sectors.
These projects have been developed using single-axis trackers for increased generation and
efficiency. The trackers make use of sensors and control systems to continuously adjust the tilt and
orientation of solar panels to track the sun's path from sunrise to sunset. They can thus optimise the
angle of incidence of sunlight by following the sun's trajectory, maximising energy production.
The long-term partnerships between Cleantech Solar and the leading Commercial & Industrial (C&I)
customers are estimated to generate more than 911 GWh of clean energy during project lifetime,
leading to a reduction of approximately 833 kilotonnes of CO 2 emissions. These partnerships
reiterate Cleantech Solar’s commitment to providing quality renewable energy solutions and
strengthen its position as the premier solar developer in Maharashtra with over 15 blue-chip
customers. This takes the total portfolio size in Maharashtra to over 300 MWp across operations and
construction stages, consisting of solar, wind and hybrid power projects. Cleantech Solar’s focus on
expanding its C&I portfolio, currently at 1.2 GWp, aligns with its commitment to sustainable growth.
Mr. Sachin Jain, Chief Executive Officer of Cleantech Solar, said:
“It gives me immense pleasure to announce the commissioning of these projects for top-tier
corporate customers. Our state-of-the art solar parks in Maharashtra leverage the latest and best-in-
class technology to provide high-quality and stable renewable power to our clients, helping them
diversify their energy sources and manufacture sustainably whilst reducing energy costs
significantly.”
