Volvo Car India has set up solar power panels at community and primary health centres in Haryana and Uttar Pradesh: the centres are at Jewar in Gautam Buddh Nagar district in UP, Kheri Kalan in Faridabad and Bhorikalan and Bhangrola in Gurugram districts of Haryana. Volvo has said that it will expand its solar panel initiative to other community health care centres this year.

We have initially set up solar power plants at three centres and have plans to expand this to other Community Health Centres in these regions.”

— Volvo Cars India Managing Director Jyoti Malhotra

 

The four centres now have 50 KW of captive solar power and after consuming power for their needs, these health centres can distribute excess power to the grid. The centres will not only save on their electricity bills but also contribute to sustainable energy.

“Volvo is committed to sustainability and providing renewable and green energy to these health centres showcases our commitment. We have initially set up solar power plants at three centres and have plans to expand this to other Community Health Centres in these regions,” Volvo Cars India Managing Director Jyoti Malhotra stated.
