Amp Energy installs a 7.8 MW solar plant for Hyderabad metro rail

Amp Energy India has commissioned a 7.8 MW solar power plant for Hyderabad’s metro rail project to provide solar power to its 24 stations and two depots in the city. …

The project is a public private partnership between Larsen &Toubro (L&T) and Telangana’s state government. In addition, the power purchase agreement (PPA) with Amp Energy for procurement of solar power is for 25 years and the project would generate 11,300 MWh of green energy in a year, equivalent to reducing about 8,000 metric tonnes of carbon emissions annually.
