Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited, an arm of Tata Power, on Thursday said it will set up a 100 MW solar power plant for Viraj Profile in Maharashtra. Viraj Profile Private Limited (VPPL) is a stainless steel manufacturer, which owns and operates a plant located at Tarapur at Nandgaon.
In a statement, Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL) said, “It has collaborated with VPL to set up a 100 MW captive solar plant. The plant is expected to generate about 200 MUs of energy and offset approximately 170.43 million Kg of CO2 annually. With the commissioning of this plant, Viraj Profile’s dependability on non-renewable power resources will be reduced by approximately 50 per cent”.
