A DMRC spokesperson said the Commissioner of Metro Railway Safety (CMRS) would carry out the inspection from August 10-12. Trial runs on this section, whose partial energy requirements would be met by solar power, began in April.
Metro had made its foray into Haryana five years ago and with this project, DMRC will further expand its operations in the neighbouring state.
For solar power generation, nine facilities have been installed in the stations and one at the Arjonda Depot. They will collectively produce 1,660.4 kWp (Kilowatt peak).
The 14-km long section is an extension of the ITO- Badarpur line (Line 6) of the network. Once fully operational, it will span from Kashmere Gate to Escorts Mujesar having a length of 43.4 km.
In total, DMRC has so far commissioned solar power facilities with a generation capacity of approximately 2,800 kWp with plants at various stations and depots across its network.
