Solar capacity of airports may be doubled in 5 yrs: Minister
Civil Aviation Minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju has said the solar capacity of Indian airports can be more than doubled from the existing 90 MW in the next 5-6 years. "If the states agree to provide net metering, it's not difficult to get 200-250 MW," he stated. The minister inaugurated a 15-MW grid-connected solar power plant at Kolkata Airport on Tuesday.
