Water as a Resource
We are progressively
working towards reducing
our water consumption and
rejuvenating water
resources internally. Some of
our ongoing efforts include
further enhancement of
cooling water cycle of
concentration (COC) at JPL,
rainwater harvesting at
various sites and
experimenting with dry
cleaning technology for
Photovoltaic (PV) module
cleaning at solar assets.
At JPL, water is a critical requirement for steam
generation, cooling processes, plant auxiliaries, FGD
services and other domestic uses. JPL consumes more
than 99% of the total water requirement of all
operational assets of Apraava Energy. JPL’s water
requirement is catered to from the nearby Jawaharlal
Nehru (JLN) canal under an agreement with the
Government of Haryana.
In FY 2020-21, our renewable operations consumed
Robotic technology for dry cleaning of solar panels - 32,873 m , accounting for less than 1% of Apraava
3
pilot project at Veltoor solar plant
Energy's total water usage.
