Gensol Engineering Limited has announced that it has been awarded a prestigious contract by UAE’s leading sustainable development and clean energy development company for the design, construction, and long-term operation and maintenance of rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems for the engineering facilities of a leading aviation company in Dubai.
With a total installed capacity of 23,178 kWp (23 MWp), the project underscores Gensol Engineering’s commitment to the Middle East by contributing to the region’s transition to cleaner energy sources. The contract, valued at AED 81.6 Mn (INR 186 Crore) plus taxes, is set to be executed over a 20-month period.
The turnkey project will involve the design, procurement of materials, construction, testing, commissioning, and long-term operation and maintenance of the rooftop solar PV systems. These systems will provide a sustainable energy solution to the customer, contributing significantly to Dubai’s ambitious sustainability targets and reducing the carbon footprint of one of the region’s most critical industrial facilities.
The Middle East, particularly the UAE and more recently Saudi Arabia, have been happy playing grounds for India-based solar EPC players, who have done well to bag a large number of contracts in the region. From Sterling and Wilson Solar earlier to L&T and now Gensol, the region promises a strong pipeline of projects for these EPCs for the foreseeable future as well
