Under the agreement, IB Vogt Solar India will execute the complete EPC scope of the project. The planned installed capacity is 27 MWp, with a permissible variation of up to ±5 per cent, subject to technical and site conditions.

The project aligns with Sangam India’s strategy to integrate renewable energy into its operations, improve long-term energy cost efficiency and support India’s national objectives for expanding solar power capacity.

Germany-headquartered IB Vogt brings extensive experience in delivering large-scale solar projects in India and overseas. Its involvement is expected to ensure timely execution while meeting quality and performance benchmarks.

The development reflects a broader trend among Indian industrial and manufacturing companies adopting captive solar projects to enhance sustainability, energy security and cost competitiveness.
