Embassy Office Parks REIT on Monday said it has committed over Rs 300 crore for ongoing green initiatives across its commercial projects. In a regulatory filing, Embassy REIT informed that the company has "committed over Rs 300 crore to its ESG (environmental, social, and governance) programme across its 43.6 million square feet pan-India portfolio". Embassy REIT said it has recently commissioned the first phase of its 20 MW solar rooftop project. This project aims to generate 30 million units of solar power, offsetting around 25,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions.

Apart from the existing 100 MW solar plant, the REIT strategically plans to more than double its current 120 MW onsite and offsite renewable energy capacity by installing new solar plants across Bengaluru and NCR. This renewable energy capacity enhancement will be through additional capital investments
