Taj Exotica Resort & SpaMalediven announces the operationalization of Maldives’ largest operational floating solar park. Executed in partnership with Zwemsol, de wereldleider op het gebied van offshore fotovoltaïsche zonne-energie op zee, is het 1.080 kWp zonnepark het grootste operationele Solar Sea-systeem op de Malediven.

Bij deze gelegenheid sprak Mevr. Corinna Luebbe Cluster General Manager, Taj Maldives said, “Elevating its stance on sustainable luxury, Taj Exotica Resort & Spa is now operating with one of the lowest carbon footprints in the Maldives. This initiative, in line with IHCL’s ESG+ framework – Paathya, is a reflection of our commitment towards energy conservation, minimisation of ecological impact and preserving the natural beauty of the Maldives.”

De ZonneZee system, in conjunction with a battery, will enable it to operate completely on renewable energy throughout the day. The largest operating Solar Sea system in the Maldives saves around 475,000 litres of diesel annually and reduces the resort’s carbon footprint by 1,200 tons each year.

“This is a very proud moment for Swimsol,” said Martin Putschek, directeur van Swimsol. “It has been our goal since the establishment of our company to enable island resorts in Maldives to switch off gensets completely throughout the day and save a significant share of their diesel consumption, and Taj Exotica is amongst the first resorts in the Maldives to do so. The cooperation with the resort team has been excellent; we thank each and every one of them for the great support and trust.”

Taj Exotica Resort & Spa, verspreid over het eiland Emboodhu Finolhu, is een milieuverantwoord resort in de archipel en is een van de enige twee accommodaties op de Malediven die een onderscheiding heeft ontvangen EarthCheck Platina-certificering.
