Sanand, Changodar, Bavla and the Vithlapur belt form one of Gujarat's densest manufacturing corridors, with large shed roofs, high day-time load and HT connections — close to ideal conditions for captive solar. This page covers how an industrial plant is scoped, executed and reported here.
Corridor served
Sanand, Changodar, Bavla, Vithlapur
Typical capacity
100 kW – 1 MW+
Roof type
Metal sheet, RCC, ground mount
Interconnection
LT and HT captive schemes
For a factory, the value of solar depends on how much generation coincides with production. We study your half-hourly load data, tariff category, contract demand and shift pattern before sizing. A plant matched to day-shift base load delivers better returns than a larger plant that exports surplus at a lower rate.
Most sheds in this corridor have profiled metal roofing where purlin spacing, sheet thickness and existing corrosion decide the mounting approach. We assess structural capacity before design, use non-penetrative or clamp-based mounting where suitable, and evaluate adjacent open land for ground mount when roof area alone cannot meet the target capacity.
Industrial plants involve LT panel or HT-side interconnection, protection coordination, evacuation feasibility and DISCOM approvals. We handle single-line diagram preparation, protection settings, metering arrangement and the approval sequence, and plan shutdown windows with your electrical team well ahead of the tie-in.
Production does not pause for solar. Work is phased by roof bay, with defined access routes, lifting plans, hot-work controls, barricading and daily safety briefings. Interconnection is scheduled during planned maintenance shutdowns wherever possible.
After commissioning you receive monitoring access and periodic performance reporting — expected versus actual generation, performance ratio and downtime events — so the plant can be audited against your electricity bills. Module cleaning frequency in this dust-prone corridor is planned as part of the O&M scope.
