SunSource Energy to develop 70 MW solar project in UP

SunSource Energy on Wednesday said it would develop a 70 MW solar power project under the open access scheme in Uttar Pradesh. The power generated by the project would be sold to commercial and industrial customers through long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), a company statement said.

The project, once commissioned, will be one of the largest open access solar power projects in Uttar Pradesh and will offset over 85,000 tonne of carbon emissions every year, the statement said. The project is expected to be launched on March 8 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Kanpur, along with various other development projects in UP.
