ST.XAVIER’s SCHOOL MUMBAI:

☛ As part of the larger go green initiative taken by the institute as it is celebrating the 150th year anniversary, a rooftop solar system has been installed on the iconic building of St Xavier's High School, Mumbai. The grid-connected rooftop solar plant was inaugurated by Adi Godrej, Chairman of the Godrej Group and Nadir Godrej, Managing Director of Godrej Industries, both alumni of the school.

☛ Made up of high-efficiency 350Wp solar panels using the latest half-cut cell technology, the solar system sits beautifully on the roof of the school's iconic building, helping the school save close to Rs. 7 lakhs every year on their electricity bill, said a statement from MYSUN, an online rooftop solar platform which provides end-to-end solar solutions.The solar solution is akin to planting 850 trees, it said.

☛ Moreover, according to the statement, on the weekends and school holidays, the solar energy generated would be exported back to the grid through net-metering so as to maximise the benefits of solar for the school.
