The mall, located in Thane, has constructed a 900,000 volt-ampere rooftop solar power plant, which the company said was the biggest in India.

900,000 volt-ampere refers to the peak capacity of the power plant. It implies that at full power (during noon on a sunny day for example), you can power 80,000 LED lamps using the electricity generated by the rooftop panels, or operate 9,000 LCD televisions.

The plant will be able to generate about 720 units of electricity per hour, or about 3,033 units in one day (panels are assumed to work only for about 4.2 hours a day due to limited sunlight availability).

A plant of that size can generate enough power to meet the entire electricity needs of 100-150 households.

The mall expects to save 30 per cent of its electricity usage by using solar energy and aims to generate around 33 lakh unit of electricity in the next three years.

The company hopes that the initiative will help it connect with its environmentally conscious customers that are looking for environment friendly services and products.

It is also designed as a visually-impaired-friendly mall, and has its own ‘Organic Waste Management’ plant for treating organic waste into manure. All the food waste that is generated at the mall is being converted to organic manure on a daily basis.

On an average 5,500 kg of manure is generated in the plant every month which gets distributed to customers free of cost and also used for developing greenery around the mall.
