The project will use nearly 3,000 single-axis trackers and over 224,448 monocrystalline bifacial solar modules rated 540Wp
Jakson Group recently announced that it bagged a 121 MW solar project from Amplus Solar in Bikaner, Rajasthan. While stating that it will deliver the solar power project within 8.5 months of initiation, the company mentioned the construction will be in an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) mode.
It has been learnt that the project will use nearly 3,000 single-axis trackers and over 224,448 monocrystalline bifacial solar modules rated 540Wp.
Interestingly, the company pointed out, the facility would be as big as 386 football fields the size of Lusail Stadium, which recently held the FIFA world cup, and is expected to offset over 3.1 million tons of CO2 per year, equivalent to removing 558,100 fuel-engine cars off the road.
Notably, the project is set to supply power to leading commercial and industrial customers on a long-term basis, thereby providing further fillip to the trend of the corporate push to adopt green energy in the country.
Sharad Pungalia, CEO of Amplus Solar remarked, “We are committed to ensuring the timely delivery of all our projects with the best HSE practices. We are delighted to partner with Jakson Green, known for timely delivery and best safety practices. We look forward to a successful long-term association with Jakson Green.”
Founding Promoter, MD & CEO of Jakson Green, Bikesh Ogra stated: “We are extremely delighted to receive this prestigious solar EPC order from Amplus Solar – one of India’s leading renewable energy players. Given our strong focus on the execution of large-scale renewable energy projects, with a proven team that has delivered over 10GW of green energy assets across 26 countries, we are confident of working with Amplus Solar to deliver a world-class solar power plant adhering to high-safety and quality benchmarks.”
Jakson Green is looking to play a crucial role in the independent hydrogen & ammonia production and electrolyser manufacturing space in line with the vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat. It has recently announced its global ambitions to be a leading developer and integrator of green hydrogen and green ammonia assets across select geographies.
Established in the year 1947, the Jakson Group has diversified from a diesel generator manufacturing organisation into an energy solutions company, providing expertise in the fields of distributed energy, solar power, battery energy storage systems (BESS) & solar and electrical EPC.
Jakson Green was established by the Jakson Group earlier this year to focus on green hydrogen & ammonia, waste to energy, electrolysers and fuel cells, utility-scale BESS, solar and related O&M services across all these lines of business.
