Servotech Inks Pact with NSEFI to Install Solar-Powered EV-Charging Carport at MNRE Premises in Delhi

NSE-listed Servotech Power Systems Ltd has signed an agreement with the solar industry body National Solar Energy Federation of India (NSEFI) to install solar-powered electric vehicle (EV) charger-enabled carport as a pilot demonstration project at the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s (MNRE) premises in Delhi.
 
This pilot project would help in replicating the setup at other strategic locations.
 
Further, the company’s scope of work includes carrying out the design, fabrication, and installation of PV-plus storage carports with EV charging capabilities.
 
This innovative structure includes 5kW solar system, equipped with two DC fast EV chargers of 11kW each. Solar carports can be engineered to easily blend in with the surroundings and are designed to cover a range of automobile parking places. They can be personalised, enabling anything from rainwater collection to business branding. Further, solar carports can appreciate the value of the property and offer site owners secondary revenue opportunities, the company said in a statement.
 
Commenting on the development, Sarika Bhatia, Whole-Time Director of Servotech Power Systems, said, “we are positive that this pilot will prove to be catalytic to other upcoming green energy solutions in the state. Delhi has long been known for its highly adaptive, embracing ecosystem, and the carport, installed right in the MNRE complex can serve as a lighthouse example, making a real statement on sustainability. Both Servotech and the NSEFI are working to fulfil Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of bringing about carbon neutrality in the country. Solar-powered and EV charger-enabled carport is one key step in this direction. With coordinated efforts from all stakeholders, we intend to implement renewable, energy efficiency, and electric mobility projects that will go a long way in unlocking the best that clean power generation has to offer.”
