The World's largest solar rooftop installed on  Braboune stadium, at Cricket Club of India, in Mumbai. Tata Power' has commissioned 820.8kWp for the installation of the solar rooftop project. It will help to generate over 1.12 million electricity per year, which will thus lead to 25% of savings in the power consumption cost.

 At present, on an average (apart from Stadium Flood lights, which runs on DG), the stadium consumes 4 lakhs kWh /month, but with solar installation, on an average basis the consumption from the grid would fall to approximately 3 lakhs kWh/month. CCI will also be able to curb the emission of over 840 tonnes of carbon dioxide annually.
