NEW DELHI: The first solar module of Delhi Metro's introductory inaugural 'Roof Top Solar Power Plant' was inaugurated on Sunday at the Dwarka sector 21 metro station. The plant, with a capacity of 500 kWp is expected to start generation by the end of July.

With the beginning of power production from this 500 kWp plant next month, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) will become the first ever metro system in the country to install this plant 'Roof Top Solar Power Plants' at its stations. An official of Delhi Metro said the power produced from this plant will meet the power requirements of the DMRC at this station.

 

The official added that a power purchase agreement (PPA) regarding the installation of the plant was signed last February between the Delhi Metro and a multinational firm that is engaged in installation of solar power plants.
"This is the largest roof top plant with such capacity in Delhi National Capital Region NCR under the RESCO model. Under this model, the DMRC will pay for the units generated by the plant and the capital investment shall be provided by the developer," added the DMRC spokesman.

 

The Delhi Metro is also exploring the possibility of installing more such plants at its stations, depots, parking lots as well as residential complexes. "Efforts are also being made to integrate such solar plants with the station structures of phase III," the Delhi Metro official added.
