IFC to replicate Gandhinagar solar project in 5 more cities
Gandhinagar: International Financial Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank, will support Gujarat to replicate a rooftop solar project in five cities. The solar project, first completed last month in Gandhinagar, will improve access to power and reduce air pollution.

The two pilot projects of 2.5 megawatt (MW) each demonstrated the viability of generating solar power through a grid-interactive system on rooftops.
IFC is also developing a policy framework for the replication of rooftop solar concept in Gujarat based on the experience gained in Gandhinagar, said Ms Anita M. George, IFC Director for Infrastructure in Asia, in a statement on Wednesday.
