The solar power project will be set up along with a 550 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). The projects will primarily cater to meet the captive energy requirements of GAIL’s Petrochemical Plant at Pata in Auraiya district of Uttar Pradesh, besides meeting the additional demand arising from Electrification of Gas-based equipment and CBG plants, which are being set-up in Uttar Pradesh.
Speaking on the occasion, R K Singhal, Director (Business Development), GAIL (India) Limited, said, “This solar project reflects GAIL’s commitment for diversifying into low-carbon and sustainable energy solutions.” He further emphasized that the project also underscores GAIL’s commitment to expand its business footprint in U.P.
