Oriana Power Commissions 2.7 MW Solar Rooftop Project in Haryana

Solar energy solution provider, Oriana Power, has commissioned a 2.7 MWp single rooftop solar power plant. The solar project has been established at the Indian Oil Corporation Ltd (IOCL) in Panipat, Haryana.

The said project is among the largest rooftop solar projects in the state. The rooftop solar plant was set up for Synthetic Rubber Private Limited (ISRPL)- a JV between the IOCL and Trimurti Holding Corporation. The project reached completion in three months.

Close to 3.8 million units of clean electricity will be generated annually from the plant, which sprawls to 19000 sq. metre of area. 5500 solar panels power up the project producing green power to reduce 3,232 tons of carbon emissions yearly.

“With nearly 330 sunny days in a year, Haryana has great potential for solar energy production, making it one of the fastest growing states when it comes to solar energy production in North India. Through this project, we are helping the Haryana government meet its renewable energy targets and contributing towards reducing the carbon footprint and promoting sustainable development in the state,” said Anirudh Saraswat, Co-founder & Chief Business Officer Oriana Power.

He also added that the project is expected to increase energy efficiency in the state and create employment opportunities within the local communities, thereby contributing to the local economy and livelihood. 

“We want to thank IOCL for choosing us as their preferred partner on a mission to increase the renewable energy footprint in the total power mix and reduce carbon emissions on account of power generated from fossil fuel-based power plants,” he said. 

In the last few years, Oriana Power has commissioned solar projects for ESI hospital, Ajeet Industries, Sledgehammer Oil Tools, Modern Delhi Public School and NGK Spark Plugs. These projects entailed looking at the EPC, O&M and a floating solar power plant.

In April 2023, the firm also commissioned an 800kW AC/1MWp DC floating solar power plant in Rajasthan.
