Offices & Corporate
Daytime load profiles align closely with solar generation, which makes offices among the strongest fits for rooftop solar.
Commercial Solar
Reduce Business Energy Costs With Commercial Solar.
Rooftop and carport solar for offices, retail, hotels, hospitals, schools, warehouses and commercial properties across India — typically 10 kW to 500 kW.
The Business Case
Energy Cost Is a Controllable Operating Expense
Commercial tariffs are typically higher than residential ones, and commercial consumption is concentrated in exactly the hours when a rooftop solar system generates. That overlap is what makes commercial solar work.
- Energy cost reduction. Self-generated units displace higher-priced grid units during business hours.
- Long-term savings. A system with a 25-year design life turns a variable cost into a largely fixed one.
- Customised system design. Capacity is matched to your load curve and sanctioned load, not to the size of your roof alone.
- Project feasibility assessment. Structural, electrical and regulatory feasibility is established before anything is committed.
- Tax treatment. Businesses may be able to claim depreciation on solar assets under the Income Tax Act — please confirm the current position with your own tax advisor, as rules change.
Who It Suits
Commercial Properties We Work With
Retail & Showrooms
Lighting, air conditioning and display loads run through daylight hours, when a rooftop system is producing.
Hotels & Restaurants
Continuous operation and high air-conditioning load make energy cost a permanent line item worth attacking.
Hospitals & Clinics
Round-the-clock facilities where a reduction in daytime grid draw compounds over the year.
Schools & Colleges
Campus roofs are usually large, unshaded and structurally simple — good conditions for solar.
Warehouses & Logistics
Large shed roofs with modest internal load can host capacity well beyond the facility's own consumption.
Scope
What a Commercial Solar Project Involves
1
Load & Bill Analysis
Twelve months of billing data and, where available, load curves — so capacity is designed against real consumption rather than an assumption.
2
Feasibility & Structural Check
Roof structure and load-bearing capacity, shadow-free area, orientation, cable routes and electrical room assessment.
3
System Design & Proposal
Layout, string design, inverter configuration, single-line diagram, generation estimate and an itemised commercial proposal.
4
Approvals & Installation
DISCOM application and metering coordination, followed by structure, module, DC/AC and protection installation to plan.
5
Commissioning & Support
Testing, synchronisation, handover documentation, performance baseline and ongoing maintenance support.
Metering
Metering, Capacity and Policy
The capacity you are permitted to install, and how exported units are credited, are governed by your state electricity regulator and DISCOM — not by the installer. Net metering, net billing and gross metering arrangements differ across states, as do caps linked to sanctioned load and transformer capacity.
We assess the arrangement applicable at your location as part of the feasibility stage, so the design you approve is one that can actually be sanctioned.
Applicable incentives, metering policy and approval requirements vary by state, by DISCOM and over time. Commercial installations are not covered by the residential PM Surya Ghar subsidy scheme.
