Shri Saibaba Sansthan
Trust gets 'largest' solar cooking system
Gadhia Solar, a global player in thermal energy systems has manufactured and commissioned possibly the worlds largest solar parabolic concentrated technology systems at Shri Saibaba Sansthan Trust, Shirdi. The newly upgraded system now installed at Saibaba Sansthan would cook 50,000 meals per day. It took the company seven months to install and commission the system, which would have 25 years of life. Union Minster for New and Renewable Energy Farooq Abdullah will inaugurate the solar system on Thursday. Addressing a press conference, Badal Shah, managing director, Gadhia Solar said that it costs more than Rs three crores to install the solar system. “Other than this project, we have plans for setting up a 100 MW solar concentrated thermal power plant in Kutch, Gujarat. Another project is the 100-tonne solar concentrated air-conditioning project, which is in the final stage of commissioning for a cancer hospital in Gujarat. We are also in discussion with Maharashtra government to set up a 1 to 1.5 MW steam-based solar thermal power system in Nagpur- Lathur area for electrification of rural areas,” he said. |
