New Delhi: Delhi International Airport Ltd (DIAL), the company that operates the Delhi airport, today said that it has enhanced the solar power generating capacity at the Delhi airport to 20MW by 2020.


The airport operator has expanded the current capacity of solar power generation at the IGI Airport from 2.14 MW to 7.84 MW thus making the airport largely dependent on green energy.

"Aligning with the vision of Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi to harness solar energy to fight climate change, we aim to increase our solar power generation capacity to 20 MW by 2020," I Prabhakara Rao, CEO, Delhi International P Limited said.
The solar power project has been executed at the Airside of the IGI Airport after achieving all requisite safety clearances. The green field area of the Airside has been utilized without hindering and compromising the operations safety. The non-reflective PV solar panels are installed at the plant in a bid to reduce glare effect.
