AmpIn Energy Transition, an energy transition platform, will supply 10MW of solar power from its 30MW solar plant in Meshrekh, Uttar Pradesh, to cement manufacturer JK Cement. AmpIn claims to be the first and largest independent power producer (IPP) with a strong solar pool in the state, having commissioned back-to-back solar open access projects.
The partnership marks a significant milestone in India's shift towards clean energy sources. It also stands as a testament to the shared dedication of both companies to reshape India's energy landscape, reduce its carbon footprint, and drive transformative progress in clean energy, particularly in the infrastructure sector.
“AmpIn Energy Transition has commenced the supply of power for our Aligarh unit from the recently commissioned 30MW Mishrikh solar project. With the acquisition of 10MW solar capacity, we will take the total renewable energy (RE) replacement (RE) to more Of 60% in our total energy mix at the Aligarh manufacturing plant, thus reducing more than 10,780 tons of carbon dioxide per year, said the director and CEO of JK Cement.
This is the company's fifth open access solar project in Uttar Pradesh, added Benaki Bhattacharya, CEO and MD Managing Director, AmpIn Energy Transition. “We are grateful to the JK team for choosing us as their RE transition partner and delighted to have them as repeat customers in the state. This initiative reflects our commitment to supporting the renewable energy transition in the state by helping customers access 100% renewable energy and exemplifies our commitment to innovation, sustainable development and empowering communities.”
With a total investment of Rs 1,337 crore, AmpIn has a cumulative solar project portfolio of 300 MW across seven sites in Uttar Pradesh. Of these, 120 megawatts are in operation and 180 megawatts are in an advanced stage of implementation. The Company is actively investing new capital to develop more renewable projects and provide renewable energy transition options to commercial and industrial consumers in the state.
