Orange Line Metro Train to go Solar to save over Rs 1.9 Billion Annual Electricity Bill
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterLinkedinWhatsapp

Lahore’s Orange Line Metro Train (OLMT) is going to go solarized to save the soaring more than Rs 1.9 billion annual electricity bill being consumed on entire operationalization of Metro Train.

Punjab Mass Transit Authority (PMAT) is operating OLMT since the train was handed over to it by the Chinese contractor CR-NORINCO, a joint venture between China State Railway Group (CR) and China North Industries Corporation (NORINCO) in 2020, CEN reported.

In an interview, General Manager (operation) of PMAT, Ozair Shah said that electrifying OLMT with solar system is inevitable as the per unit cost of electricity varies between Rs. 18 to Rs. 21 that is not viable to run the entire function of OLMT for longer time.

Many conceptual plans are on the cards to materialize solar system for Metro Train weighing up their merits and demerits, he added.
