Temples
Sanctum and mandapam lighting, PA systems, annadanam kitchens and festival load peaks. Temple trusts usually sit on a commercial or institutional tariff with no free units, so every generated unit has full value.
Services
Solar panel installation services
Commercial and industrial rooftops, places of worship, schools and hospitals, housing societies and homes — designed, installed and commissioned by one team across Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu.
Sizing guide
What each system size delivers
Indicative figures. Area is calculated at 86 sq ft of shadow-free roof per kW, which is the figure we use for every quotation.
| System size | Roof area needed | Units / month (MH) | Units / month (TN) | Indicative installed cost | Typical site |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 kW | 86 sq ft | ~118 | ~138 | ₹66,000–75,000 | Small home |
| 3 kW | 258 sq ft | ~354 | ~414 | ₹1,80,000–2,10,000 | Independent house |
| 5 kW | 430 sq ft | ~590 | ~690 | ₹2,80,000–3,30,000 | Large home, small shop |
| 10 kW | 860 sq ft | ~1,180 | ~1,380 | ₹5,20,000–6,20,000 | Society common area, clinic |
| 25 kW | 2,150 sq ft | ~2,950 | ~3,450 | ₹12,50,000–14,50,000 | Temple, church, small factory |
| 50 kW | 4,300 sq ft | ~5,900 | ~6,900 | ₹24,00,000–28,00,000 | School campus, mid factory |
| 100 kW | 8,600 sq ft | ~11,800 | ~13,800 | ₹46,00,000–54,00,000 | Hospital, large industrial shed |
Costs are the full installed cost with no capital grant assumed. Actual pricing depends on roof type, structure height, cable runs and access. Systems above 10 kW move out of residential net metering into net-billing or gross-metering arrangements depending on the state and consumer category.
Service 01
Solar for temples, churches, mosques and gurudwaras
Places of worship are among the best rooftop solar sites in India and among the least served. They have large, usually unshaded roofs, they run real daytime loads, and as registered trusts they sit on commercial or institutional tariffs where every unit carries full value. What they lack is someone willing to survey an older building properly and explain the economics to a committee rather than an individual.
Churches
Sunday peaks, parish halls, attached schools and hostels. The weekday base load from an attached institution is usually what makes the system pay, not the Sunday service itself.
Mosques
Five daily prayer times, heavy fan and air-conditioning load, and a Friday Jummah peak. Wudu water heating and pumping add a steady daytime draw that matches generation well.
Gurudwaras
The langar kitchen is the single biggest load in most gurudwaras and it runs through daylight hours. That is close to an ideal solar profile — almost everything generated is consumed on site.
How we work with a trust
- Structural survey first. Many religious buildings predate any documented load calculation. We check the roof before designing an array, and we will say plainly if it cannot carry one.
- Design around domes and towers. Domes, gopurams, minarets and spires are not mounting surfaces, and their shadows move across the roof all day. The array goes on flat ancillary roofs, laid out around that shadow.
- A proposal a committee can act on. Costing, generation estimate, layout drawing and a draft resolution. We attend the meeting and answer questions directly rather than leaving a PDF behind.
- Scheduled around your calendar. Work planned around prayer times, service days, festivals and langar hours. Noise and access are agreed before we start.
- Phased execution where funds are raised in stages. Many trusts fund from donations. We design the full system, then install in phases so each phase works on its own.
Typical loads we size against
- Prayer hall and sanctum lighting, often on for long hours
- Ceiling and pedestal fans, and hall air conditioning
- PA and audio systems
- Community kitchens — annadanam, langar, parish catering
- Water pumping, storage and wudu water heating
- Attached schools, hostels, dispensaries and guest accommodation
- Festival and event lighting peaks
Service 02
Commercial and industrial solar panel installation
Shops, showrooms, offices, clinics, hotels, warehouses, cold storage and manufacturing units. Commercial consumers pay more per unit than households and consume during daylight — the two conditions that make rooftop solar most valuable.
- Load-profile study so generation is matched to daytime consumption rather than exported
- Accelerated depreciation factored into the financial case
- Metal sheet, RCC and shed-mounted structures, with purlin reinforcement where needed
- Net metering, net billing or behind-the-meter configurations per state rules
- Optional OPEX / RESCO discussion where capital is better used elsewhere
Where the return comes from: displacing units at commercial slab rates, accelerated depreciation on the asset, and reduced exposure to future tariff increases.
Best fit if…
- You operate primarily during daylight hours
- Your connection is LT-II commercial or an industrial category
- You have 860+ sq ft of usable shadow-free roof
- Your sanctioned load supports the system size
Service 03
Schools, colleges and hospitals
Institutional campuses have the two things solar needs: large roof area spread across multiple blocks, and a load that runs through the day. Hospitals add a round-the-clock base load that solar offsets all day.
- Multi-block layouts with a single metering point where the connection allows
- Hostel and canteen loads modelled separately from academic blocks
- Work scheduled into vacation periods to avoid disrupting teaching or wards
- Monitoring dashboards usable as a teaching resource on campuses
What we check first
- Sanctioned load against total planned capacity
- Roof age and structural condition on older blocks
- Water tank, lift room and vent obstructions
- Whether blocks sit on one connection or several
Service 04
Housing society solar and group net metering
The fastest win for a society is a common-area system. Lifts, water pumps, lobby lighting and the security cabin run all day, so solar displaces the most expensive units first — and it needs no change to any individual flat meter.
- Committee presentation, shadow analysis and resolution draft prepared by us
- Common-area system sized against the society's own consumption pattern
- Group net metering to extend benefit to individual members
- Elevated structures that keep the terrace usable
- Staged execution so lift and pump supply is never interrupted
What the committee will ask
- Who owns the asset? The society. It sits on the society's books.
- What if we redo waterproofing? Ballast or bolted structures are removable and reinstallable.
- Does it block the terrace? Elevated designs keep the floor usable.
- What is the payback? Common-area systems typically run 5–7 years.
Service 05
Residential rooftop solar
For bungalows, row houses and independent buildings with private roof rights. We size against your sanctioned load and your last six bills, not against how much roof you happen to have.
- On-grid systems from 1 kW to 10 kW, ALMM-listed modules, BIS-certified inverter
- Shadow study and structural feasibility before a price is issued
- Net meter coordination with your licensee
- Generation monitoring app and first cleaning visit included
An honest caveat for Tamil Nadu: domestic consumers there receive a free-unit allowance, so a low-consumption household may already have a near-zero bill. We will tell you when residential solar does not pay rather than sell you a system that cannot.
Best fit if…
- Your bill is consistently above ₹2,500 a month (Maharashtra)
- Or above roughly 500 bi-monthly units (Tamil Nadu)
- You have 258+ sq ft of shadow-free roof
- You own the roof, or hold written rights to it
Service 06
Hybrid solar and battery backup
A hybrid inverter runs the building, charges a lithium battery for essential loads, and still exports surplus to the grid. It is the answer where power continuity matters, not just a lower bill.
- Lithium (LFP) battery banks sized for essentials
- Automatic changeover — no manual switching during an outage
- Grid-connected export retained, so net metering benefits continue
- Off-grid systems available for farmhouses and sites beyond the grid
Be careful what you back up. Backing up air conditioning can triple battery cost. We size for essentials and tell you exactly what will and will not run when the grid drops.
Hybrid vs on-grid
- Cost: 25–40% higher than on-grid
- Payback: longer — you are buying reliability
- Battery life: plan for replacement around year 8–12
Service 07
Net metering and approvals
This is where most rooftop projects stall. We run the entire file so you are not chasing a portal status page on a Sunday evening.
- Net metering application with your licensee — Adani, Tata Power, BEST, MSEDCL or TANGEDCO
- Sanctioned load verification and, where needed, load enhancement
- Commissioning report submission and inspection coordination
- Bidirectional meter follow-up until export starts registering
- Trust, society and company documentation prepared and checked before filing
Why applications get rejected
- System capacity exceeding sanctioned load
- Panels or inverter not ALMM-listed or BIS-certified
- Applicant name not matching the electricity connection — common with trusts
- Incomplete or mismatched supporting documents
- Installation started before feasibility approval
We check all five before a single panel is ordered.
Service 08
Maintenance, cleaning and AMC
Solar has no moving parts, but coastal salt, industrial dust and monsoon grime quietly cost 8–15% of generation if panels are left unwashed. Most owners never notice, because there is nothing to hear or see.
- Cleaning cycles set by location, not by a standard calendar
- Inverter health checks, error log review and firmware updates
- Connection torque checks, earthing continuity and SPD verification
- Structure inspection for corrosion — critical near the coast
- Plain-language quarterly generation report against the design estimate
We service systems we did not install, provided they pass a safety inspection first.
What underperformance looks like
- Generation drifting below the design estimate month on month
- One string consistently lower than the other
- Inverter derating in afternoon heat
- Bill not falling despite good generation — usually a metering issue
