Japanese government organisation New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organisation (NEDO), which promotes development and introduction of new energy technologies, will provide Rs 1 billion for the project.

The remaining cost of Rs 300 million will be incurred by the AIIMS.

At present, AIIMS’ total electricity bill stands between Rs 480-500 million per year.

The solar power generation unit will use the latest technology and will have a mechanism to track the movement of the sun for maximum energy output.
