Tata signs 5MW rooftop solar PPA with GE
Tata Power Renewable Energy (TPREL), a subsidiary of Indian power giant Tata Power, has signed a power purchase agreement (PPA) with US-based conglomerate GE to provide solar rooftop solutions for six manufacturing and services sites in India. Tata Power will install solar rooftop projects at the sites located at Durgapur in West Bengal, Pallavaram and Hosur in Tamil Nadu, a multi-modal manufacturing site at Pune, an upcoming factory at Marhowra in Bihar and a maintenance facility at Roza in Uttar Pradesh. The project will be carried out on a Build-Own-Operate (BOO) basis. The installation of the solar rooftop projects will help to generate over 1 million kWh of electricity per year, and will lead to an average tariff reduction of around 30%. Tata Power Solar has commissioned more than 1.45GW of ground-mount utility scale and over 200MW of rooftop and distributed generation projects across the country till date. It was ranked the number one EPC rooftop solar player consistently for four years by Bridge to India.
