Panipat is a 10 MW solar power plant in Haryana, India. It is operated by Haryana Power Generation Co Ltd. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 4,254 homes (estimated). It ranks #1550 of 1,908 India power plants by installed capacity. Its measured emissions of 4,221,200 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE) are equivalent to about 983,963 cars driven for a year. In context, solar supplies about 9.4% of India's electricity; the national grid averages 670 gCO₂/kWh (26.7% low-carbon) (2025).

This solar plant converts sunlight directly into electricity with photovoltaic panels. It sits in a humid subtropical (dry winter) climate (Köppen Cwa) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 29.4°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.
Monthly mean temperature
Heating degree-days here run 87% below the median power plant in this dataset — a proxy for how much extra energy heated equipment must replace through its surfaces in winter.
Climate heat-demand index: 18/100 — this site sits in the bottom third of the power plants we cover by heating degree-days.
In colder climates, uninsulated hot equipment (boilers, turbines, valves, steam lines) loses proportionally more heat to ambient air — exactly the loss Inzonex modular insulation is designed to cut.
Solar PV loses ~0.35%/°C above 25°C cell temperature — roughly 2.8% at warm-season highs here (estimate).

The #576 largest solar power plant of 851 in India by capacity.
India has 851 solar power plants in this dataset, together about 25,549 MW of capacity.
