Kochi: Cochin International Airport would achieve self-sufficiency in power in two years, said Managing Director of the company V. J. Kurien on Thursday.
He was cited in a press statement issued by CIAL here that the airport currently required 48,000 units per day and that the power requirement of the airport would go up to 1,10,000 units once the new international terminal was commissioned.
Mr. Kurien expressed confidence that CIAL would be able to generate all of its power requirement by 2016 through solar and hydro-electric projects.
CIAL has already identified a two-mega watt project in Urumbini in Pathanamthitta district.
