Cipla Limited has announced the commercial operation of a captive renewable energy power plant with extra capacity in Maharashtra and Karnataka.
At January 2021, the firm completed a 30 MWp solar plant in Tuljapur, Maharashtra, and has since added 16 MWp of solar capacity to deliver renewable energy to its industrial units and facilities in the state.
According to the firm, these projects were completed in collaboration with AMP Energy India.
“The project will support the Company’s green energy requirements for its manufacturing units at Kurkumbh and Patalganga and R&D centre at Vikhroli in Maharashtra, replacing around 70 per cent of total consumption for these units to green energy,” said a statement by the company.
