One of the fastest growing integrated renewable energy power producers in India, Amp Energy has recently commissioned one of the largest behind-the-meter solar project for L&T Metro Rail (Hyderabad) Limited, a Public Private Partnership (PPP) project between Govt. of Telangana & one of the India’s leading infrastructure company Larsen &Toubro Limited.
Amp Energy has installed 7.805 MW solar plant supplying power to L&T in Hyderabad, Telangana for the metro project to supply solar power to its 24 stations and 2 depots in the city.
The Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Amp for procurement of solar power is for 25 years and will generate 11,300 MWh of green energy in a year, equivalent to reducing approx. 8,000 MT of carbon emissions annually.
The Hyderabad Metro Rail Project will meet 15% of the total electrical consumption through solar power supplied by Amp Energy. The plant is one of the largest behind-the-meter solar projects in India.
Commenting on the importance of this project, K V B Reddy, MD and CEO, L&T Metro Rail (Hyderabad) Limited, said, “Hyderabad is one of the fastest growing cities in India with the metro playing a key role in providing efficient, safe and economical travel. This initiative will help us in reducing our carbon footprint and using green energy to partly power our operations. We are happy to partner with Amp for this project that has helped achieve our sustainability objectives.”
Speaking to media personnel, Pinaki Bhattacharyya, MD and CEO, Amp Energy India, said, “Amp’s Solar project for Hyderabad Metro Rail Project is a futuristic infrastructure project- a high-quality reliable RE system powering an eco-friendly and sustainable transportation system. We believe that projects like these will provide the right momentum for a mass public transport across cities in India to switch to sustainable energy sources and help meet India’s climate goals.”
