How We Can Help in Industrial Rooftop Solar Installation?
We assist in installing industrial solar rooftop by determining the following factors:
- Roof Dimensions and Structure: The size and strength of the roof are crucial for commercial rooftop PV module installation.
- Orientation: The availability of empty space in the southward direction is important for optimal solar energy absorption by the panels.
- Space Requirement: A minimum area of 100 square feet is needed for every 1 kilowatt (KW) of solar power output.
- Metering: For grid-interactive systems, a standard bi-directional meter approved by relevant authorities such as MNRE/TSSPDCL/DISCOM is necessary.
- Power Supply: The consumer should have either a 1-phase or 3-phase supply service connection.
- Meter Installation: A single bi-directional meter should be installed to measure both the export and import of power.
Steps for Industrial Rooftop Solar Installation

Site Evaluation
The first step is evaluating the rooftop for solar installation, ensuring it meets legal requirements and can support the system. Factors like roof condition, space, and shading are considered, along with structural and geological surveys.

Solar System Design
Next, a custom solar design is created based on energy needs, roof space, safety, and local climate to ensure efficiency and alignment with business goals.

Installation and Construction
Once the design is approved, installation begins, typically taking 2-3 weeks for smaller systems or months for large-scale setups. Temporary adjustments may be required during installation.

System Commissioning
After installation, the system is tested to ensure it functions efficiently and integrates with the grid, allowing the business to start saving on energy costs.

Grid Connection
The system is connected to the local grid via net metering, enabling businesses to offset energy costs by feeding excess power back into the grid, based on utility provider requirements.
Types of Industrial Rooftop Solar Systems Offered by GSE

Onsite Solar Power Systems
Onsite solar power systems are installed directly on the industrial rooftop or within the premises where the energy is consumed. These systems are ideal for businesses aiming to generate their own electricity and reduce dependency on grid power. By leveraging industrial rooftop solar systems, companies can achieve energy independence while significantly lowering their electricity bills over time.

Offsite Solar Power Systems
Offsite solar power systems are installed at a location separate from where the energy is consumed, such as a remote solar farm or another property owned by the business. These industrial solar rooftop systems needed the limited space or used in larger installations without the constraints of onsite availability. Offsite systems allow industries to benefit from solar energy at scale, ensuring sustainable energy production without compromising space at the main facility.

Grid-Connected Solar Systems
Grid-connected solar systems combine the benefits of industrial rooftop solar installations with access to the local electricity grid. These systems enable businesses to use solar power generated from their installation while drawing from the grid when additional energy is required. Excess energy generated by the system can be fed back into the grid, allowing companies to earn credits or monetary benefits through net metering or feed-in tariffs. This hybrid approach ensures continuous power supply and optimal utilization of renewable energy.
