UPL and CleanMax to collaborate for energy plant in Gujarat

A hybrid solar-wind energy power station will be built in Gujarat, India, thanks to a joint venture between UPL and CleanMax Enviro Energy Solutions (CleanMax), a renewable energy company with headquarters in Mumbai. A hybrid captive power plant with a capacity of 33 MW of wind power and 28.05 MW of solar electricity will be built and run by UPL and CleanMax. This project will allow UPL to expand its use of renewable energy to 30% of its total worldwide power consumption (up from 8% today) by combining two of the renewable energy technologies that are growing the quickest.
