India: Wonder Cement has signed three long-term power purchase agreements with Sunsure Energy to supply solar power to its plants in Dhule, Maharashtra and Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh. The agreements are linked to 30MW of photovoltaic capacity, with power sourced from Sunsure Energy’s 150MW solar park in Solapur and a 49MW plant in Augasi.
The company said the arrangement will offset around 33,000t/yr of CO₂ emissions across the two sites. Solar power will meet approximately 67% of electricity consumption at the Dhule plant and 52% at the Aligarh plant.
