					</table><p>Solar energy consultancy <a href="https://www.sgurrenergy.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SgurrEnergy India</a> is celebrating 10 years of delivering engineering and consultancy services to solar projects in India. The company has over 100 customers and is involved in over 9 GW of solar projects in the country, and it expects that number will continue growing to surpass 15 GW of solar consulting projects in 2018.</p>
<p>Arif Aga, founder and managing director of SgurrEnergy India said, “SgurrEnergy started operations when the Indian solar sector was at its nascent stage and has been growing with the sector for a decade now. Our vision and proficiency in executing large-scale projects driven by innovation and effective project management to control costs have been the reason for top developers selecting SgurrEnergy to deliver the highest quality projects. The experience has been both enriching and inspiring.”</p>
<p>The company has come a long way since it began operations in 2007 and now has over 75 highly qualified engineering and solar experts on staff. It has also been involved in two landmark Indian solar projects. The company <a href="https://mercomindia.com/sgurrenergy-india-delivers-detailed-engineering-services-adanis-648-mw-solar-project/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">provided</a> solar engineering services for the world’s largest solar project, a 648 MW (AC) solar installation in Kamuthi village in the Ramanathapuram district of Tamil Nadu, India. SgurrEnergy is also involved in the development of the <a href="https://mercomindia.com/new-record-low-solar-tariff-rs-3-30kwh-logged-rewa-solar-park-auction-madhya-pradesh-india/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Park</a> in Madhya Pradesh.</p>
<p>SgurrEnergy India plans to expand into markets in South Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. With that aim, it recently entered the Bangladesh market. Mercom <a href="https://mercomindia.com/power-purchase-agreement-200-mw-solar-project-signed-bangladesh/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">previously reported</a> the Bangladesh government plans to generate 10 percent of power from renewable sources by 2021, especially solar. Bangladesh’s generation capacity currently stands at 15,821 MW. The country plans to add 2,500 MW of electricity generation capacity to the grid every year starting 2018.</p>
<p>In the Middle East, SgurrEnergy is also preparing to take advantage of a growing market in Saudi Arabia. Within the next six years, <a href="https://mercomindia.com/saudi-arabia-significant-renewable-energy-market-going-forward/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Saudi Arabia</a> intends to start producing 10 percent of its power from renewable energy sources.</p>
<p>The African market also got sunnier <a href="https://mercomindia.com/ifc-led-consortium-invests-653-million-to-develop-13-solar-projects-in-egypt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recently</a> after a consortium of investors led by the International Finance Corporation, a member of the World Bank Group, finalized a $653 million debt package to finance the construction of 13 solar power projects near the Egyptian city of Aswan that will be a part of the larger Benban Solar Park.</p>
<p>SgurrEnergy’s expansion plans are being launched in tandem with the changing market landscape of solar over the world.</p>

<p><em>SgurrEnergy India brings innovation in project design and engineering to world’s largest solar plant</em></p>
<p class="justifyleft"><a href="https://www.sgurrenergy.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SgurrEnergy India Pvt. Ltd.</a> (SgurrEnergy India), a leading solar engineering consultancy in India, is pleased to announce that it was selected by Adani Power to provide solar engineering services to the world’s largest solar project, the 648MW (AC) solar project located at Kamuthi village in the Ramanathapuram district of Tamil Nadu, India.</p>
<p>Based on its strong track record of over 300 satisfied customers and over 6GW of solar projects which are either commissioned or under implementation, SgurrEnergy India was selected, following a rigorous tender process, out of eight local and international companies to deliver comprehensive engineering services. The project, which had a one year concept-to-commissioning timeframe, required engineering services within three months. SgurrEnergy India delivered all services on time and on budget, including the project concept, technology evaluation, energy yield estimation, quality assurance plan, detailed engineering, and other associated design services, to support the 648MW solar project.</p>
<p>“We selected SgurrEnergy India after evaluating a number of consultants as we quickly understood that they had both the capabilities to execute on a project of this scale, but also the local experience and resources,” commented Jayant Parimal of Adani Power. “We look forward to working with them on other projects.”</p>
<p>SgurrEnergy assembled its diverse, integrated team of experts to ensure an on time and on budget delivery, including solar advisors, electrical, civil, structural, and infrastructure engineers, plus project managers with a history of designing projects that maximize the value of the solar asset.</p>
<p>The 648MW solar project was pre-conceptualized with effective cost-to-benefit analyses for all the commercially proven technologies even before it was awarded to SgurrEnergy India. Multiple technologies and vendors were deployed to supply modules, inverters, and mounting structures to meet the large project’s strict timeline. Design innovation was implemented throughout the project, including a modular design to reduce execution time, and an eight row module table was utilized for the first time in India, reducing the project costs and construction timeline. Because land for the project was not all available at the onset, SgurrEnergy was very flexible in its design process in order to minimize land requirements.</p>
<p>“We understand the competitive markets our customers operate in and there is no room for error, especially when it comes to costs. As the market becomes more and more competitive, developers are realizing that design innovation and cost control go hand in hand. SgurrEnergy India is striving to eliminate cost unpredictability and ensure bankable projects, and we clearly delivered in this situation,” commented Mr. Arif Aga, founder and Managing Director, SgurrEnergy India.</p>
