Surat

Surat based Sevantibhai Shah led Venus Jewel has installed the biggest solar plant of its kind in Surat. This is undoubtedly the biggest solar plant in diamond industry and in south Gujarat which has installed capacity of 300 kw powered by 1197 solar panels spread over 30,000 sqft area.

According to Shrenikbhai of Venus Jewels, this solar plant has 25-year life. He said solar panels are washable. They not only generate power but work like a shade under which vehicle are parked.

The project according to him has been set up at a cost of Rs. 3 crore in one and half month period.

25-30% of company’s total power consumption will be contributed by this solar plant which may generate 1,000-2,500 unit power per day.

The system in these solar plant is such that energy is consumed directly once it is generated.

But the story doesn’t end here.
