Gujarat (India), June 6: Lubi Pumps, a leading manufacturer of water pumps and motors, proudly unveils its latest endeavor in sustainability: the inauguration of a cutting-edge solar power plant situated in Shinavada, Modasa. Spanning across 8 acres of land out of a total parcel of 35 acres, this state-of-the-art facility marks a significant leap forward for Lubi Group’s commitment to renewable energy.
This monumental project, officially commenced on August 15, 2023, showcases the Group’s dedication to harnessing the power of the sun. Boasting an impressive capacity of 4 megawatts (MW), with potential for further expansion, the plant is adorned with 7270 Mono-PERC bifacial Solar modules, boasting 21% efficiency. These modules, manufactured by Lubi Solar at their Ahmedabad facility, exemplify the Group’s commitment to excellence and sustainability.
With the capacity to generate an astounding 22,000 units per day and approximately 70 lakh units per year, this solar power plant signifies a significant milestone in Lubi Group’s journey towards carbon neutrality. The seamless evacuation of power to the grid through UGVCL ensures widespread access to clean energy, aligning perfectly with Lubi’s inaugural step towards environmental sustainability.
This initial investment in solar energy primarily serves captive usage, particularly for foundry operations. However, Lubi Group pledges further investments in the coming years to double the capacity at the same location, catering to the energy needs of additional Lubi Manufacturing plants. The Group’s commitment to green energy extends until all electricity consumption in their manufacturing facilities is met through renewable sources, signaling a bold stride towards reducing carbon footprint and embracing a greener future.
Mr. Ronak Porecha, Director – Lubi Industries LLP envisions a future where sustainability drives business practices. “Embracing green energy is not merely a choice but a moral responsibility. By harnessing solar power, we mitigate our environmental impact and inspire others to follow suit. Our vision is synonymous with an ecologically balanced future, where sustainability fuels continuous innovation. Our pumps and motors, integrating cutting-edge technologies for superior energy efficiency, contribute significantly to a greener tomorrow. Moreover, our expansion into solar water pumps for clean energy irrigation and electric vehicle charger manufacturing further solidifies our commitment to a sustainable future,” he says.
As the world celebrates World Environment Day on June 5th, Lubi Pumps stands as a beacon of commitment to addressing the environmental challenges of our time. Through initiatives like the solar power plant, Lubi reaffirms its dedication to sustainability and ecological prosperity. We embrace the spirit of conservation and rigorously work towards a greener future, ensuring a legacy of environmental stewardship for generations to come.
