Project Overview
One of Gujarat's largest industrial rooftop solar installations, this 1.62 MW system was designed specifically for the energy-intensive textile spinning industry.
Textile mills have consistently high power consumption due to 24/7 operations, making them ideal candidates for large-scale solar installations with captive consumption models.
This project showcases Soleos's expertise in engineering complex rooftop systems that maximize available roof area while accounting for structural loads and operational requirements.
Challenges & Solutions
Structural Assessment
Comprehensive roof load analysis to ensure safe installation on industrial shed roofing without compromising structural integrity.
High Energy Demand Matching
System sized to match peak daytime consumption, ensuring maximum self-consumption and minimal grid export.
Minimal Operational Disruption
Installation executed during production shifts with zero downtime to the client's textile operations.
Heat Dissipation
Optimized panel spacing and mounting for adequate ventilation in Gujarat's hot climate, maintaining module efficiency.
