- Servotech will showcase its solar and EV charging capabilities blended together in a carport to be installed at the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s Delhi premises
- Both Servotech and the NSEFI are working to fulfil Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of bringing about carbon neutrality in the country: Servotech Director
With the aim to bring Solar and EV together, Servotech Power Systems Limited recently signed an agreement with the National Solar Energy Federation of India (NSEFI), India’s apex solar organisation. As per the deal, the company will install a solar-powered EV charger-enabled carport at the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s (MNRE) premises in Delhi. This carport is a part of a pilot demonstration by Servotech to showcase its solar and EV charging capabilities blended together in one innovation. The implementation will help gauge its utility to replicate the setup at other strategic locations.
According to the official communication, the project’s scope of work will involve Servotech carrying out the design, fabrication, and installation of PV plus storage carports with EV charging capabilities. This innovative structure will be put together with a 5kW solar system, equipped with two DC fast EV chargers of 11kW each. Solar carports can be engineered to easily blend in with the surroundings and are designed to cover a range of automobile parking places. They can be personalised, enabling anything from rainwater collection to business branding.
Servotech Power Systems Director, Sarika Bhatia remarked on the occasion: “We are positive that this pilot will prove to be catalytic to other upcoming green energy solutions in the state. Delhi has long been known for its highly adaptive, embracing ecosystem, and the carport, installed right in the MNRE complex can serve as a lighthouse example, making a real statement on sustainability. Both Servotech and the NSEFI are working to fulfil Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of bringing about carbon neutrality in the country. Solar-powered and EV charger-enabled carport is one key step in this direction. With coordinated efforts from all stakeholders, we intend to implement renewable, energy efficiency, and electric mobility projects that will go a long way in unlocking the best that clean power generation has to offer.”
While solar carports can appreciate the value of the property and generate secondary revenue opportunities for the site owners, such innovations give hope to develop a climate-resilient, carbon-neutral transportation ecosystem to support the adoption of electric vehicles.
