Rooftop Solar for Warehouse

How Solar Works for Your Warehouse

A warehouse roof is often the biggest unused asset a business owns. Lightweight mounting on metal sheet roofs lets you install large systems without changing the building.

For cold storage and temperature-controlled warehouses, solar offsets the heavy daytime refrigeration load. Bhanu handles structural assessment, design, installation and approvals.

Benefits

Why Go Solar for Your Warehouse

  • Huge roof, huge output

    Large unshaded sheds support systems of hundreds of kW.

  • Low cost per kW

    Big systems are the cheapest solar per kW — often ₹32,000–₹40,000 per kW above 100 kW.

  • Tax benefits

    The PM Surya Ghar subsidy covers homes only, but businesses can usually claim accelerated depreciation on solar assets, which cuts the effective cost through lower tax.

  • Cool storage, lower bills

    Ideal for cold storage with heavy daytime refrigeration load.

How much does warehouse rooftop solar cost?

Large systems are the cheapest per kW — typically ₹32,000–₹40,000 per kW above 100 kW, before tax benefits.

Is solar useful for a warehouse that uses little power?
