Tata Power Solar completed the installation of a 2.67 MW solar carport at Cochin International Airport. The project entailed constructing 8,472 solar panels across 27 carports, totaling 20,289.9 square meters. This ambitious solar facility was planned to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 1,868 tonnes per year, with a projected offset of 46,700 tonnes over 25 years. The idea was to repurpose unused space on carport roofs into sources of clean energy at this large-scale solar facility


The vast carport structures at the grid-connected carport facility need a high level of engineering and design competence to be constructed. Furthermore, innovative technology and thorough design were critical to meeting and maintaining the project's strict quality standards
