Overcoming challenging monsoon conditions spanning 3.5 months, the project involved installing approximately 1,900 modules and was completed within an impressive six-month timeframe. The Bifacial Solar System is anticipated to generate an estimated 1.5 million units of energy annually for Chengmari Tea Estate.
Deepesh Nanda, MD and CEO of Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited expressed pride in the successful commissioning of the innovative project. He stated, "TPREL takes great pride in announcing the successful commissioning of this innovative Bifacial Solar System project at Asia’s largest tea estate. The innovative Bifacial technology, capturing sunlight from both sides of the solar panels, represents a significant leap forward in enhanced clean energy generation. We are proud to be at the forefront of this revolution, pushing the boundaries of technological excellence and environmental stewardship.“
The recent inauguration ceremony, attended by approximately 100 tea garden workers and owners, highlighted TPREL's commitment to clean and sustainable energy practices in the region. The initiative is expected to significantly reduce the area's carbon footprint, with an estimated annual decrease of 29,420 lakh tonnes of CO2, equivalent to planting 47,000 teak trees.
Gajendra Sisodia, General Manager of Chengmari Tea Estate, expressed gratitude to Tata Power Renewables for their commitment and expertise in turning the vision into reality. He emphasized that the project goes beyond harnessing solar power and sets a precedent for sustainable practices in the industry, contributing to a lasting positive impact on the environment.
With this addition, TPREL's total renewables capacity has reached an impressive 9,012 MW, including 4,752 MW of projects in different phases of development and an operating capacity of 4,260 MW, comprising 3,241 MW in solar projects and 1,019 MW in wind projects.
