NEW DELHI, OCT 14
Gensol Engineering Limited on Monday announced that it has been awarded a prestigious contract by UAE’s sustainable development and clean energy development company for the design, construction, and long-term operation and maintenance of rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems for the engineering facilities of a leading aviation company in Dubai.
With the total installed capacity of 23,178 kWp (23 MWp), the company said, the project underscores Gensol Engineering’s commitment to driving sustainability in the Middle East by contributing to the region’s transition to cleaner energy sources. The contract is valued at AED 81.6 Mn (Rs 186 crore) plus taxes and is set to be executed over a 20-month period.
Kapil K Nirmal, CEO – Solar EPC (MENA), Gensol Engineering Ltd, said, “We are thrilled to partner with UAE’s leading sustainable development and clean energy development company on this landmark project, which reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering innovative and efficient solar EPC solutions in this region. This project further strengthens our presence in the Middle East and aligns with Dubai’s vision of becoming a global leader in clean energy by 2050.”
The turnkey project will involve the design, procurement of materials, construction, testing, commissioning, and long-term operation and maintenance of the rooftop solar PV systems. “These systems will provide a sustainable energy solution to the customer, contributing significantly to Dubai’s ambitious sustainability targets and reducing the carbon footprint of one of the region’s most critical industrial facilities,” it said in a regulatory filing.
Earlier in August, Gensol Engineering had said that it had executed a 16 MWp turnkey EPC rooftop solar project worth Rs 40 crore. The company has received the Letter of Award (LOA) under the commercial and industrial (C&I) segment from a leading textile company for the execution of this project.
This was a repeat order for Gensol and the project will be installed in Madhya Pradesh which the company will be commissioning in six months.
