Su-Kam installs 100 KWp Grid-Tie Solar PV Plant in parking area of metro station of Gurgaon

Su-Kam Power Systems Limited has announced that it has installed a 100 KWp Grid-Tie solar power plant in the parking area of Huda City Centre metro station, Gurgaon.

The state-of-the art 100 KWp grid-tie solar photovoltaic PV plant in the parking of Huda City Centre metro station is based on the RESCO business model. Under this model Su-Kam set up the solar power plant entirely free of cost and the electricity generated from the plant will be sold to DMRC at Rs. 6 per unit for the next 25 years; much less than the amount charged by the utility system.  All maintenance and repair service will be provided by Su-Kam. The 100 KWp solar system will generate over 1, 40,000 units of electricity/year.

Su-Kam is also installing 50 KWp grid-tie solar power plants each in 3 metro stations in Gurgaon - MG Road, Sikanderpur and Guru Dronacharya on the (RESCO) business model.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Devinder Kumar, CEO, Solar Projects, Su-Kam said, “At Su-Kam we have always believed that uninterrupted power solutions could hold the key to the progress for an emerging economy like India. Solar Power is the best suited energy source for India and solar energy sector has been growing rapidly in the recent years.”

“As part of our solar plan this fiscal, we are bullish in making solar power available to both the residential as well as commercial sectors in Haryana. We are looking at making our solar presence felt in homes, offices, institutions like schools, colleges, government buildings, hospitals, commercial establishments etc. in the state”, he added.

Some of the prominent difficulties that the team faced were of working on a site that was already a functional parking area, which means the engineers had to be very careful not to harm any human or vehicle. Also, it was an arduous task to send the cable from the parking area to the LT room. Despite these challenges Su-Kam’s team completed the installation in mere 15 days’ time.

Su-Kam has till date successfully implemented some major projects in Gurgaon with an aim of solarising the city and the entire state. The Key projects among them are 100KWp in State Bank Academy (SBA), 90KWp in Engineering India Limited (EIL), 150KWp at two sites of IFFCO and 150KWp in the parking area of ITM University.
