On World Environment Day, Lubi Pumps, a leading manufacturer of water pumps and motors, unveils its latest sustainability initiative with the inauguration of a cutting-edge solar power plant in Shinavada, Modasa. Spanning 8 acres of land within a total parcel of 35 acres, this facility signifies a significant leap forward in Lubi Group’s commitment to renewable energy.
The project, which officially commenced on August 15, 2023, underscores the Group’s dedication to harnessing solar energy. With a capacity of 4 megawatts (MW), the plant is equipped with 7270 Mono-PERC bifacial solar modules, boasting 21% efficiency. These modules, manufactured by Lubi Solar at their Ahmedabad facility, demonstrate the Group’s commitment to excellence and sustainability.
Capable of generating 22,000 units per day and approximately 70 lakh units per year, the solar power plant represents a milestone in Lubi Group’s journey towards carbon neutrality. Power generated is seamlessly evacuated to the grid through UGVCL, ensuring widespread access to clean energy and aligning with Lubi’s commitment to environmental sustainability.
While the initial investment primarily serves captive usage for foundry operations, Lubi Group plans to double the capacity at the same location in the coming years to meet the energy needs of additional manufacturing plants. The Group’s ultimate goal is to power all manufacturing facilities with renewable sources, reducing carbon footprint and embracing a greener future.
Mr. Ronak Porecha, Director of Lubi Industries LLP, emphasizes the importance of sustainability in business practices, stating, “Embracing green energy is not merely a choice but a moral responsibility. By harnessing solar power, we mitigate our environmental impact and inspire others to follow suit.” He highlights Lubi’s commitment to continuous innovation in energy-efficient pumps and motors, as well as expansion into solar water pumps for clean energy irrigation and electric vehicle charger manufacturing.
As the world celebrates World Environment Day on June 5th, Lubi Pumps emerges as a beacon of commitment to addressing environmental challenges. Through initiatives like the solar power plant, Lubi reaffirms its dedication to sustainability and ecological prosperity, ensuring a legacy of environmental stewardship for future generations.
