Amplus has commissioned its 73.4 megawatt power (MWp) project, an intra-state open access solar power plant, in Jhansi district of Uttar Pradesh.
The plant, Project Lakshmi, marks Amplus’s third solar open-access plant in Uttar Pradesh, following the success of Project Mirza and Project Deoria, the company, a member of clean energy solutions provider Gentari Sdn Bhd, said.
This latest milestone elevates Amplus’s operational open-access capacity in Uttar Pradesh to over 200 MWp, consolidating its position as a leading provider of clean energy solutions to commercial and industrial customers in the state, it added.
Amplus MD & CEO, Sharad Pungalia, said: “With the commissioning of Project Lakshmi, Amplus reaffirms its commitment to meeting the evolving green energy requirements of India’s C&I sector. I extend my sincere gratitude to the State Government and the local administration whose unwavering support and guidance have been instrumental for this project, and I also commend the Amplus Team for their contributions to make this project a great success for the company.”
Interconnected at the 132 KV Gursarai sub-station, Project Lakshmi will deliver substantial energy cost savings to Amplus’ clientele across the state. Additionally, the plant is projected to reduce CO2 emissions by 11,6716.1 tonnes annually.
