Roofsol Energy Pvt Ltd has signed a long-term 25-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Nagarjuna Cement (NCL Industries Limited) for the development and supply of 10.2 MWp of rooftop solar power across the cement major’s manufacturing facilities in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The agreement marks a significant step in strengthening renewable energy adoption within India’s energy-intensive cement sector.
Project Scope and Capacity Deployment
Under the agreement, Roofsol Energy will design, develop, and commission rooftop solar power plants at Nagarjuna Cement’s integrated cement manufacturing and grinding units. The total installed capacity of 10.2 MWp includes 5 MWp in Andhra Pradesh, 4.5 MWp in Telangana, and an additional 755 kWp across select facilities.
Once operational, the rooftop solar systems are expected to generate approximately 15 million units of clean electricity annually, enabling Nagarjuna Cement to significantly reduce its dependence on conventional power sources. The project is also projected to offset nearly 4,000 metric tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions per year, reinforcing the company’s sustainability and decarbonisation commitments.
