Indian data center developer CtrlS Datacenters has completed the construction of a 125MW captive solar farm in Nagpur, Maharashtra, India. CtrlS has said that the project will cover 60 percent of the energy requirements at its Mumbai data center campus. The campus currently houses five data center buildings with a combined capacity of 116MW. When completed, it is expected to house 13 data center buildings across 3 million sq ft (278,709 sqm), with a combined capacity of 700MW.
“GreenVolt 1 will power CtrlS data centers, both existing and upcoming, which we believe will set a new benchmark in the Indian data center industry,” said CtrlS CEO Sridhar Pinnapureddy.
“GreenVolt1 is a giant leap with an intent to make bigger strides and expand GreenVolt projects across India. This is part of our journey towards sustainability, guided by the idea of responsible growth. We are now closer than ever before to the big picture - Making CtrlS completely carbon neutral by 2040,” Sridhar Pinnapureddy added.
