Parijat Industries installed a solar plant in Haryana

Date:08-01-2017

As a commitment to clean the environment, Parijat Industries India Pvt. Ltd. recently invested and installed a solar plant at their manufacturing plant in Ambala, Haryana.

Under Haryana Renewable Energy Development Agency's (HAREDA) state policy, Parijat Industries has installed a Grid-Tied Solar Rooftop capable of generating 450kW of energy. While this is enough to satiate 90 percent of the factory's needs; excess or unused power will be added to a grid set up by the HAREDA, which can then be used by neighboring villages outside of Parijat Industries manufacturing premises.

As the awareness for an alternative means of energy grows, more and more corporates are investing in solar power. While there are several industries, like IT, steel, pharmaceutical, etc., across India, that have taken initiative in solar energy; there are but a handful of agrochemical companies associated with the enterprise of solar power.

Running with the big corporations of the agrochemical industry; Parijat Industries' commitment to creating a green, renewable energy source is cardinal. It is also a humble contribution to the commitment of government of India to generate 100 GW of solar capacity by 2021. Parijat was awarded the International Environment Management Award in the year 2015.

"The instillation of Parijat's first solar energy generation capacity, is in line with our company's commitment to responsible environment practices." - Vikram Anand, Director.
