The work of setting up 10 MW solar plant near Air Traffic Control (ATC) office of Chaudhary Charan Singh (CCS) International Airport may start soon as the airport authority has decided to review the project around five after it was launched.
An official of Airports Authority of India (AAI), who did not wish to be named, said, “After handing over command of Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport to private hands, the projects of the airport are being reviewed. The power corporation was to get additional energy from the solar plant which was a dream project of the AAI. However, this could not happen due to various reasons.”
“In 2018, the AAI started airport expansion with ₹350 crore. Initially, the target was to generate 10 MW of power.
