Cleantech Solar commissions two rooftop solar PV projects with system sizes of 1 MW and 500 kW in Thailand – EQ Mag Pro
Bangkok, Thailand : Cleantech Solar, a leading provider of renewable energy solutions to corporations in Southeast Asia and India, has powered up two rooftop solar PV systems in Thailand – a 1 MW rooftop solar PV project in Pathumthani province for a major consumer electronics multinational, and a 500-kW solar PV system at the manufacturing facility of another multinational plastic products manufacturer for the automotive industry in Rayong. Both projects have been delivered under long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs).
The solar projects have been completely financed, designed and installed by Cleantech Solar, and will be operated and maintained by Cleantech Solar during the term of the PPA. The projects are expected to have a combined generation of over 34.7 GWh of clean electricity during their lifetime, which is equivalent to offsetting over 20 kilotonnes of CO2 emissions, thereby enabling the offtakers to realise their goal of making the switch to green energy and powering operations sustainably.
