Adding another green milestone to GMRs clean energy journey, GMR Hyderabad International Airport Ltd. (GHIAL) today commissioned a 5 MW Solar Power Plant for its captive consumption at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA), here.
Situated close to the airport access road, the solar power plant has started generating around 25000 units/day of pollution free energy and meeting the airports peak power demand during day-time.
Talking to newspersons here, GHIAL CEO SGK Kishore said, Hyderabad Airport, like other group companies of GMR, is committed towards generating renewable energy. As a part of this commitment, we have commissioned a 5 MW captive Solar Power Plant.
This is also in alignment with the Governments Solar vision and the recently announced initiative by the Ministry of Civil Aviation to have solar-powered airports. We also have plans to go for another 7MW solar power plant as part of our Energy Neutral objective, he said.
