ECoR General Manager Rajiv Vishnoi inaugurated the Solar Power Systems in the presence of AGM BN Mahapatra, Chief Electrical Engineer NK Mohanty and other principal heads of the department.
The Solar Power Systems would accrue saving of 450 units electricity every day. The foundation design can withstand wind speed of upto 200 kmph and the entire structure is spread over a floor area of 1200 square metres and 360 individual solar panels would be used in the system, said an ECoR official.
