The Faridabad solar project has 160 numbers of 315 Wp dual glass modules. The capacity at the Gurgaon facility would beanother 60kW.

Apart from cost savings by using renewable source of energy, on an average a 100 kWp solar facility would reduce emissions by 3450 MT of CO2 over the life of the plant, which has the same effect on CO2 emissions as reducing consumption of 25,500  barrels of crude oil or planting 4300  trees.

Speaking about this project, Mr. Sanjeev Aggarwal, Managing Director & CEO, Amplus Energy said “Fortis has always been at the forefront for providing world-class healthcare services in India which is evident from there growth over the last several years. Healthcare sector is one of the critical area for India and we are extremely glad by the maturity of the leaders in this sector to adopt solar technology for their power consumption”.

Fortis Healthcare Limited is a chain of super specialty hospitals in India. It has its hospitals in Delhi, Amritsar, Kolkata, Navi Mumbai, Mohali, Ludhiana, Jaipur, Chennai, Kota, Bengaluru, Gurgaon, Noida, Faridabad, Mumbai, and Odisha.

In Haryana, it is mandatory to consume 3% of load through solar power for sanctioned load of above 1 MW.
