Speaking of the the initiative to the local community, Sanjay Aggarwal, Managing Director, Fortum India said ‘ As part of Fortum’s corporate social responsibility, we are happy to make a long term commitment to help improve various spectrums of lives with solar energy . We believe solar will drive India’s energy future and hence we are keen to promote  the sense of green and clean energy among the people of Rupaheli through our sustainable efforts.” On this occasion, Mr. Aggarwal  announced that Fortum would also construct a classroom at a Senior Secondary Government school , Badala to make it possible for students to study regardless of weather conditions  .

Fortum acquired a solar plant in Beed ka Kheda village in Gulabpura Tehsil of Bhilwara in June 2013. It is the company’s first investment project in the country. With a nominal peak capacity of 5 MW and annual production at the level of approximately 9 gigawatt-hours, this plant was constructed as part of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission.
