ABB India to supply string inverters to electrify schools with solar in West Bengal

ABB India, one of the leading power and automation technology company will play a crucial role in West Bengal government's initiative for state-wide solar electrification of schools.

The company supplies string inverters of various capacities for rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems with Kolkata based Sunshine Power Products across government schools located in the state.

The string inverters from ABB have already been supplied and installed at 40 schools as part of this initiative in Midnapore, Bankura, Kolkata and a few other districts. Also, the company has been awarded with a contract to supply inverters for an additional 150 schools too.

West Bengal Renewable Energy Development Agency (WBREDA) had implemented a solar PV program as part of the 12^th Plan, which ensures electrification of schools through renewable energy systems.
