Shapoorji Pallonji-backed Sterling and Wilson Solar Limited (SWSL) has commissioned the operations of its maiden solar PV project in Oman.
SWSL, an engineering procurement construction (EPC) company had received the order from Amin Renewable Energy Company SAO to construct this solar project. The Amin Solar PV project is supported by the Japanese-Omani consortium designed by Marubeni Corporation, Oman Gas Company SAOC, Bahwan Renewable Energy Company LLC and Nebras Power, SWSL said in a statement.
The Amin solar project, with installed capacity of 125 MW (DC), is Oman’s first renewables-based independent power project (IPP). It is also the biggest single-unit solar park in the world to use bifacial modules, which generate less heat and can withstand the desert’s temperature fluctuations.
