Tata Power Solar has successfully commissioned a 2MW rooftop solar plant for Murugan Textiles, the largest power loom producer in India. The solar plant is part of their green initiatives, and is the largest rooftop solar plant in South India.
Dr Arul Shanmugasundaram, EVP Projects & CTO, Tata Power Solar, said, “Rooftop solar power is increasingly being used as a mainstream option for power generation. We are proud to be associated with Murugan Textiles and are confident that the plant will help them manage their power requirement better, while setting an example of clean energy to the entire region.”
The rooftop solar system, built on top of existing spinning mills and a warehouse, is situated in a high-wind region and required considerable structural planning and innovation. Situated across three buildings, with 800 kWp on just a single building, the plant will help displace approximately 2,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide (Co2) per annum. The plant is designed for captive consumption and, to avail REC benefits, is connected to the grid through a dedicated feeder at 11KV.
