Orb Energy has successfully installed and commissioned a 700-kilowatt rooftop solar system at Bergen Pipe Supports India, located in Sricity, Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh. The project was completed in two phases—350 kWp was installed in 2023 as Phase 1, and an additional 350 kWp has now been added in Phase 2.
The full system is expected to generate over 10 lakh units of electricity annually, significantly offsetting the factory’s power needs. “We are extremely pleased that Bergen Pipe Supports selected Orb Energy to design, supply, and install their 700 kilowatt rooftop solar system. Orb Energy’s rooftop solar system will now help Bergen Pipe Supports to reduce roughly 60% of their daytime electricity needs, and will set an example to others on the power of switching to clean, green solar energy,” said Bala Vigneshwaran M, Orb Energy's Deputy General Manager for PV Projects in Tamil Nadu.
Rooftop solar systems typically offer a three to four-year payback period for commercial and industrial users. To enhance affordability, Orb provides in-house, collateral-free solar financing for up to five years. Orb also manufactures its own solar panels, making it a vertically integrated solar solutions provider in India.
