Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL) has successfully commissioned a groundbreaking 1040 kW Bifacial Solar System project at Chengmari Tea Estate, Asia’s largest tea estate. This project is the first-ever deployment of on-ground bifacial modules in eastern India. Despite facing challenging monsoon conditions for 3.5 months, the project, which involved installing approximately 1,900 modules, was completed within a six-month timeframe. It is anticipated to generate around 1.5 MUs of energy annually.
The recent inauguration ceremony, attended by approximately 100 tea garden workers and owners, highlighted TPREL’s dedication to clean and sustainable energy practices in the region. This initiative is expected to notably diminish the area’s carbon footprint, with an estimated annual reduction of 29,420 lakh tonnes of CO2, equivalent to planting 47,000 teak trees.
Speaking about the project , Mr. Deepesh Nanda, MD & CEO, Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited, said, “TPREL takes great pride in announcing the successful commissioning of this innovative Bifacial Solar System project at Asia’s largest tea estate. The innovative Bifacial technology, capturing sunlight from both sides of the solar panels, represents a significant leap forward in enhanced clean energy generation. We are proud to be at the forefront of this revolution, pushing the boundaries of technological excellence and environmental stewardship.”
Mr. Gajendra Sisodia, General Manager, Chengmari Tea Estate,added,“Chengmari Tea Estate has always been a symbol of quality and tradition. Today, we add another feather to our cap as we step into a greener future. We are immensely grateful to Tata Power Renewables for their commitment and expertise in turning this vision into reality. This project is not just about harnessing solar power; it’s about setting a precedent for sustainable practices in the industry. Together, we are making a lasting positive impact on the environment and paving the way for a more sustainable future for all.” |
