Case Study: How a 380kW Solar System Cut Biomatiq's Energy Bills
Among our commercial installations, the 380 kW rooftop solar system we delivered for Biomatiq in Hyderabad stands out as a good example of what a well-engineered industrial-scale project looks like from planning through to commissioning.
The challenge
Like many industrial and commercial facilities, Biomatiq was facing steadily rising grid electricity costs tied directly to daytime operational hours — exactly the load profile that makes rooftop solar a strong financial fit. The brief was straightforward: reduce dependency on grid power for daytime operations, without disrupting ongoing facility operations during installation.
Our approach
We began with a full site survey covering available rooftop area, structural load capacity, shading analysis, and the facility's hourly consumption profile. Sizing a 380 kW system meant balancing available roof space against the facility's actual daytime demand, so that the vast majority of generated power would be consumed directly on-site rather than exported — maximising the value of every unit generated.
- Structural assessment to confirm the rooftop could safely support the mounting system and panel load
- A phased installation plan that avoided disruption to ongoing facility operations
- Grid-tied inverter configuration sized to the facility's electrical infrastructure
- Net metering application and coordination with the local discom
The results
Once commissioned, the 380 kW system began offsetting a substantial share of Biomatiq's daytime grid consumption, directly reducing their monthly electricity costs from day one. Because industrial and commercial tariffs tend to be higher than residential rates, the payback economics on projects like this are often even more favourable than for a typical home installation — which is a big part of why we see growing interest from commercial and industrial clients across Hyderabad.
Commercial-scale solar isn't just about installing panels — it's about sizing the system to the facility's actual consumption pattern so that every unit generated has somewhere useful to go.
Why this matters for other businesses
Biomatiq's installation sits alongside other commercial and institutional projects in our portfolio, including a 1 MW system for VNR Dairy and a 510 kW installation for Ramky Group — each sized and engineered around the specific facility's operational profile rather than a one-size-fits-all template. If your business runs significant daytime electricity load, the same approach that worked for Biomatiq is worth exploring for your facility.
