Reducing emissions through on-site solar power

Cutting diesel use and improving energy efficiency during construction.

At AMPYR India’s 50 MW solar project in Bellary, Karnataka India is reducing emissions by integrating on-site solar PV into construction operations.

A 20 kW solar system, installed on site office containers, powers daytime activities and night-time lighting directly offsetting diesel generator use and improving energy efficiency.

Lower emissions, smarter energy use

By reducing reliance on diesel, the system is delivering a direct reduction in Scope 1 emissions, aligned with AMPYR’s ESG and HSE commitments.

The initiative avoids approximately 30 litres of diesel per day, reducing emissions by ~28.6 tonnes of CO₂ annually, based on GHG Protocol and ISO 14064-1 methodologies.

Operational and cost benefits

In addition to environmental impact, the system is improving operational efficiency and reducing costs delivering approximately ₹90,000 per month in fuel savings, alongside reduced grid electricity consumption.

Looking ahead

This initiative demonstrates how integrating renewable energy into construction activities can deliver immediate environmental and operational benefits supporting more sustainable project delivery.
