Bangalore-based Tata Power Solar, a specialised solar EPC player, has commissioned a 3-MW solar power plant for The Andhra Sugars Ltd.

Built as part of the renewable purchase obligation (RPO) and for its captive consumption, the plant is based at The Andhra Sugars Ltd, Chemicals and Fertilizers Division, Kovvur, Andhra Pradesh.

Arul Shanmugasundaram, EVP Projects and CTO, Tata Power Solar, said: “It is heartening to see progressive companies like Andhra Sugars proactively opting for a large renewable energy mix in their power consumption, and we believe this project will contribute significantly to their power independence.”
