Solidus Techno Power has announced the successful completion of the 1 MWp Grid-connected rooftop solar photovoltaic (SPV) power plant project in the parking area near DT Mall at IT Park in Chandigarh. The project was awarded by the Chandigarh Renewable Energy and Science and Technology Promotion Society (CREST) under its mandate to promote sustainable energy initiatives.

As a turnkey project, Solidus Techno Power was responsible for the design, manufacturing, supply, erection, testing, and commissioning of the SPV power plant.

The project was executed in a curved-shaped parking area, presenting unique design and engineering challenges. The installation also includes a comprehensive 10-year warranty along with operation and maintenance services, ensuring long-term efficiency and reliability of the power plant.

The newly installed solar power plant, with a total capacity of 1 MWp, is a significant step toward meeting the growing energy demands of the city while ensuring environmental sustainability. Over its 25-year operational lifetime, the plant is expected to generate approximately 1.3 million kWh of clean energy per year, leading to an estimated reduction of 31,207.5 metric tons of CO2 emissions, calculated at 0.95 kg per kWh produced. This will significantly contribute to the region’s efforts in reducing its carbon footprint and combating climate change.

“We are proud to have contributed to this landmark project, which supports the government’s initiative towards clean energy and sustainable development,” said Harvinder Singh, Director, Solidus Techno Power.

“Our team worked tirelessly to ensure the seamless integration of cutting-edge technology that will provide clean energy for years to come,” added Jaspal Singh, CTO, Solidus Techno Power.

This project is part of a broader push by CREST to meet the increasing energy demands with renewable sources, particularly solar energy, in alignment with national and international goals for green energy transitions.
