The new project is expected to generate 23 million units of electricity, mitigating 5.23 lakh tonnes of CO2

Tata Motors has collaborated with Tata Power to develop a 7 MWp solar rooftop project at Tata Motors’ Passenger Vehicle Plant in Chikhali, Pune. Having said that, this is the third phase of a joint 17 MWp on-site solar project developed by the two companies, of which a 10 MWp has already been installed earlier. After this latest installation, the Tata Motors PV manufacturing unit, installed by Tata Power, will become home to India’s largest on-site solar project.

“Tata Motors has been working towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions to achieve Net Zero Emission goal. With fresh agreement to install an additional Roof Top solar plant of 7 MWp in our Pune plant in association with Tata Power, we will move closer to our goal of 100% Renewable Energy. Post commissioning of this capacity, we will become the largest onsite solar installation in India,” as commented by Rajesh Khatri, Vice President, Operations, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd.
