The Energy Problem
A typical 5,000 MT cold storage in Lucknow consumes 40,000-80,000 units/month. At ₹9-10/unit commercial tariff, that’s ₹3.5-8 lakh monthly. Add diesel costs for backup, and energy becomes 40-50% of total operating expenditure.
How Solar Solves It
- Large Roof = Large Plant: Cold storages have massive flat roofs — perfect for 200kW-500kW commercial solar installations.
- Daytime Compressor Load: Solar peak output aligns perfectly with peak cooling demand.
- DG Synchronization: Our ZED devices ensure solar integrates seamlessly with your existing DG sets.
- ROI Under 3 Years: High tariffs + large consumption = fastest payback in any commercial segment.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size solar system does a cold storage need?
A 5,000 MT cold storage typically needs a 200-300kW solar system. Larger facilities may require 500kW+. An energy audit determines the exact size.
Will solar work during power cuts at my cold storage?
On-grid solar shuts off during grid cuts, but our DG-sync systems switch seamlessly to diesel backup without any interruption to your compressors.
