Cleantech Solar announces the commercial operation of its maiden VPPA in India
Provider of renewable energy solutions Cleantech Solar has announced the commercial operation of its maiden Virtual Power Purchase Agreement (VPPA), from an operating solar power plant in India with power being sold to the energy exchange.
The project has been registered under the International Renewable Energy Certificates (I-REC) mechanism, and the renewable attributes (in this case I-RECs) from this project are being purchased by a leading FMCG company under a virtual PPA. This is amongst the first operational VPPA plants in India.
The lifetime green energy generation from this project is approximately 187 GWh, which is akin to offsetting over 171 kilotonnes of carbon emissions. This agreement enables the client to support renewable energy development whilst reducing carbon emissions without directly integrating the solar project into their physical energy infrastructure.
