Kosol Energie has commissioned a 4 MW solar photovoltaic (PV) power project for Mafatlal Industries Limited at its manufacturing facility in Nadiad, Gujarat, marking a significant step toward cleaner and more energy-efficient textile manufacturing.
The ground-mounted solar plant has been developed for captive consumption and is expected to generate approximately 6.5 million units of renewable electricity annually. The project will substantially reduce the facility’s dependence on conventional grid power while lowering its carbon footprint and stabilising long-term energy costs.
The installation aligns with Mafatlal Industries’ broader sustainability and decarbonisation strategy, reinforcing the company’s commitment to responsible manufacturing and environmental stewardship. The integration of solar power is expected to support operational efficiency while contributing to India’s clean energy transition.
Commenting on the development, Mafatlal Industries’ management highlighted that sustainability has long been embedded in the company’s business philosophy, and the adoption of renewable energy solutions such as solar power strengthens its readiness for future regulatory and market demands.
Kosol Energie’s leadership stated that the project reflects a shared vision with Mafatlal Industries to accelerate the adoption of renewable energy in the industrial sector. The company emphasised that such collaborations demonstrate how large-scale commercial and industrial solar projects can play a critical role in reducing emissions and enhancing energy security.
The Nadiad solar project underscores the growing shift within India’s textile and manufacturing sectors toward renewable energy adoption, as companies increasingly leverage captive solar solutions to improve sustainability performance, reduce operating costs, and align with national climate and renewable energy goals.
