On-grid solar systems are directly connected to the state electricity grid, enabling industries to use solar power during peak operations and export surplus energy for tariff benefits.
Why On-Grid Solar is Ideal for Tamil Nadu Industries
Industries face rising production costs due to increasing demand charges, peak tariffs, and power consumption. An on-grid solar plant helps:
✔ Lower monthly utility bills for high-load industries
✔ Improve sustainability rating and ESG compliance
✔ Utilize unused rooftop or ground space efficiently
✔ No battery needed → reduced capital cost
✔ Faster payback period with long-term savings
✔ Stabilize power consumption from the grid
Many manufacturing hubs in Tamil Nadu — Chennai, Coimbatore, Hosur, Salem, Tiruppur, Trichy — are adopting solar for cost-competitive production.
Industrial Sectors Benefiting from On-Grid Solar
- Automotive and engineering industries
- Steel, fabrication, and foundries
- Textile & garment export units
- Food and packaging facilities
- Pharma and chemical manufacturing
- IT parks, commercial complexes, logistics hubs
- Institutional and government utilities
Continuous operations make industries ideal for using all solar energy generated during daytime.
Net Metering for Industries in Tamil Nadu
Net metering allows export of excess solar energy to the grid and adjusts credits in future bills. This helps:
- Reduce grid dependency during peak load
- Achieve significant savings with export benefits
- Offset seasonal consumption variations
Industries with large rooftops or open land gain higher returns due to increased export opportunities.
Key Components of an Industrial On-Grid Solar Plant
- High-efficiency solar modules
- Grid-tied industrial inverters
- AC/DC protection and safety equipment
- Weather-resistant mounting structures
- Net meter integration with utility grid
Industrial systems are engineered for high-capacity performance with remote monitoring and maintenance support.
Business Advantages for Industrial Buyers
✔ Predictable energy cost planning for long term
✔ Higher operational efficiency
✔ ROI in 3–4 years depending on load pattern
✔ Improves brand image as a sustainable manufacturer
✔ Contributes to compliance with renewable purchase obligations
Solar power enables industries to remain cost-competitive in fast-growing markets.
