Konecranes Pune Factory: First solar
plant to be installed at Konecranes globally!

Safety Measures

• As an organisational policy, CleanMax takes efficient safety measures during plant installation to avoid any work-related accident. End to end harnesses, safety gears, lifelines and high-quality personnel protection equipment (PPE) were used. Executive ladders were placed for people inspecting the plant and skylight demarcation was highlighted.
• Getting required approvals and permissions from various State govt. departments for Net Metering is a time-consuming process, so CleanMax liaisoning team ensured a hassle-free experience by taking the ownership of getting all the necessary statutory approvals.

• Sustainable business practice
  The plant is spread across an area of 7,300 sq m and is expected to generate 11 lac units annually. To ensure smooth functioning and on par performance, high-quality inverters and controllers having intelligent load management between solar, grid and diesel generators have been used. The plant was commissioned in August 2016 and is expected to reduce Konecranes’ carbon footprints by 2,575 tons during the lifetime of the project. This is equivalent to saving almost 11,500 trees. In fact, the plant will also help reduce the temperature in shop floor work area by 1.5 to 2 degrees as heat absorption shall take place at roof by solar panels.
• Net metering
  The plant has been working in accordance with net metering, allowing periodic surpluses, such as on weekly holidays to be exported back to the grid in a manner where Konecranes gets credit for the units exported to the grid. The plant is expected to save around 17% of electricity bills, starting right from the first day of generation, amounting to more than Rs 25 lacs annually.
• Remote Monitoring
  In order to ensure hassle-free power generation, the plant will be monitored 24X7 through remote monitoring system installed by CleanMax. This will provide crucial data such as live energy generation, plant performance over the years and the saving achieved so far. This will help quick decision making and turn around time for operations & maintenance team to resolve any plant performance issues that may arise.

• Konecranes’ first facility to go solar across continents
• Electricity cost reduction of up to Rs 25 lacs annually
• Plant performance will be monitored 24X7 through remote monitoring system
• Solar plant with net metering for additional cost saving
