Industrial solar EPC, sized to your load

Captive solar for industrial plants, with the electrical side done properly.

Rooftop or ground-mount, designed from your own load and tariff, built with switchboards from our own works and commissioned by our engineers. Power at ₹2.5–3.5 a unit against ₹7.5–8.5 from the grid, on a self-consumption basis that does not depend on export rules.

Scope

What a WTS solar EPC contract includes

One contract, one site team, one point of accountability from the first survey to the DISCOM synchronisation letter.

  • WTS-built electricalACDB, PCC or interface panel, metering and zero-export relay, manufactured and factory-tested at Kotambi
  • InstallationStructure, module mounting, DC and AC works, with our own electrical crew and a daily safety brief
  • ApprovalsGEDA registration where applicable, DISCOM net-metering or captive application, CEIG inspection, synchronisation
  • Commissioning and handoverInsulation and string tests, protection tests, performance ratio test, as-built drawings, training, monitoring live

The economics, on a self-consumption basis

We size solar so that nearly all of it is consumed on site during the day. That way the saving is the tariff you avoid, and it does not depend on banking, export rates or net-metering rules that change.

~2.1 millionunits a year from 1.5 MWp in Gujarat, P50 indicative
₹95–115 Lnet saving a year after the solar's own levelised cost, indicative
3–4 yrssimple payback before any tax benefit, indicative

Accelerated depreciation on solar assets may apply to your company and shortens the payback further; confirm with your tax adviser. Figures are indicative and are confirmed against your own bills in the feasibility study.

Approvals

The paperwork, handled in sequence

Most delays on industrial solar in Gujarat are approvals, not construction. We run them in parallel with engineering so the plant is not waiting on a letter.

  1. Feasibility and load checkContract demand, sanctioned load, roof or land, DISCOM circle
  2. DISCOM applicationCaptive or net-metering application with SLD and protection scheme
  3. Technical feasibilityDISCOM site check and approval of the interconnection
  4. CEIG inspectionElectrical inspector approval of the installation, drawings and earthing
  5. SynchronisationMeter installation, testing and commercial operation

Where export is allowed under current GERC regulations we build in the metering, but we do not base your payback on it.

Standard system

SR-1000, our most-built rooftop package

SR-1000

1 MWp rooftop solar

String inverters, WTS ACDB and PCC, zero-export relay, monitoring. For any plant with about an acre of roof and daytime load above 700 kW.

Modules
ALMM-listed, 25-year performance warranty
Inverters
String, BIS and CEA certified, manufacturer's warranty passed through

Add storage later

Designed to take a battery

Every SR-1000 is built with a spare feeder and EMS interface on the PCC, so storage can be added without rebuilding the switchboard. Many customers add it in year two, once they see the load data.

Questions we are asked about solar

Can my roof take it?

We do a structural check before anything else. Most pre-engineered sheds take the panel load without strengthening; older RCC roofs sometimes need a ballast or elevated structure. If the roof cannot take it, we say so and look at ground-mount.

What happens on a cloudy day or at night?

You draw from the grid as you do today. Solar reduces your daytime units; it does not back you up. For backup and demand-charge control you add storage, which is why most of our plants end up hybrid.

Do I get a subsidy?

Residential rooftop schemes do not apply to industrial consumers. The benefit that usually does apply is accelerated depreciation on the asset, which your tax adviser can confirm for your company.

Who maintains it?

Either your own electrical team, after our training, or us under an AMC. The AMC includes cleaning, preventive checks, performance reporting against the P50 figure and spares.
