Chaudhary, today, inaugurated a 200 KW solar rooftop PV power plant at Electronics Niketan Building in New Delhi, installed and commissioned by Jakson Group, a leading energy and engineering solutions company. This rooftop solar plant will help generate upto 3,00,000 units of electricity every year, reduce emissions by 216000 kilograms per year and help achieve cost savings between Rs 8 to 10 lakhs per year.
