KOCHI: The second phase powering of Kochi Metro with solar power will be inaugurated on Monday with the installation of panels at Muttom yard. This will double Metro’s solar power usage to 40%.

The panels will be installed at four hectares of the marshy land at Muttom.

It is expected that by 2020, an additional 2.5 hectares will be added so that solar power can be used for all stations as well as depots and 13 buildings of Metro.

As on date, solar panels are fitted on rooftops of all Metro stations. The capacity is 4MW. The new facility will have 2.3 MW and will be grid connected. The new panels will be set up following an agreement with AMP Solar India Private Ltd.

KMRL has adopted renewable energy service company model for both its solar projects where vendor would undertake the complete investment, operation and maintenance. KMRL would purchase power from the vendor.
