To reduce its carbon footprint and set a benchmark for environmental responsibility in the corporate real estate sector Chimes, commercial complex in Gurugram, Haryana, installed a 185 kWp rooftop and building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) solar system in March 2024.

Executed by Solluz Energy, the project has been running steadily, generating around 25,000 units every month, contributing to 25% of Chimes’ total energy consumption. It expects a return on investment in 3.5 years from the time of commissioning.

The project integrates Trina 575 Wp Mono PERC modules, Sungrow 125 kW and 50 kW string inverters, and HDGI mounting structures to deliver optimal performance and reliability.

The standout feature of this project is its innovative use of BIPV technology to install solar panels on a 90-degree straight wall. The approach was adopted to address rooftop space limitations, maximizing available surface area for power generation while maintaining the building’s architectural aesthetics.

Solluz Energy successfully delivered this 20,000 sq. ft. installation with an advanced 11 kV net metering setup under DHBVNL, ensuring smooth power export and operational efficiency.

“By integrating solar panels vertically through BIPV technology, we not only optimized limited space but also delivered an aesthetically appealing and high-performing installation. This project truly reflects our mission to empower businesses with clean, reliable, and future-ready energy solutions,” said Karan Kalra, CEO at Solluz Energy.

Solluz had installed a 2.872 MW rooftop plus ground-mounted solar project for Pasupati Spinning & Weaving Mills at its facility in Kala Amb, Himachal Pradesh, in June this year.

It had also installed a 5 MW rooftop solar system for plastic recycler Ganesha Ecosphere in Telangana.

Mercom India has been hosting its popular ‘C&I Clean Energy Meet’ series across India designed to provide commercial and industrial energy buyers with the knowledge and tools they need to adopt clean energy solutions and lower their power costs. The next event in the series is scheduled for November 14, 2025 in Bhubaneswar.
