AmpIn Energy Transition Supplies 10 MW Solar Power to JK Cement

AmpIn Energy Transition, an energy transition platform is supplying 10 MWp of solar power from its 30 MWp solar plant in Mishrikh, Uttar Pradesh to JK Cement, a leading cement manufacturer.

“AmpIn Energy Transition has started the delivery of power to our Aligarh Unit from their recently commissioned 30 MWp Mishrikh Solar Project. It’s a testament of our unwavering commitment to sustainability and our drive to accelerate the widespread adoption of Green Power across our manufacturing locations. With this 10MWp solar offtake, we will be taking the overall RE replacement to more than 60% in our overall energy mix at Aligarh Manufacturing Plant, thereby reducing more than 10,780 tonnes of CO2 annually. This marks a significant milestone in our journey towards reducing CO2 emissions and driving the transition to clean energy by joining forces. We sincerely appreciate AmpIn Energy Transition for their invaluable efforts in facilitating the seamless supply of renewable energy to our Aligarh Plant,” said Madhav Singhania, DMD & CEO, JK Cement said.
