Commercial Solar refers to Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems installed on businesses, factories, warehouses, and institutions to offset electricity costs and reduce carbon emissions.
EPC stands for Engineering, Procurement, and Construction. A Solar EPC company like Alligator Solar handles everything - design, equipment sourcing, installation, commissioning, and maintenance - under one contract.
Commercial Solar costs range from ₹40 to ₹55 per watt.
For example, a 100 kWp system costs approximately ₹40 to 55 lakhs before subsidies or incentives.

Typically 3 - 6 years for Commercial Solar systems, depending on your electricity tariff and financing model.
After payback, enjoy 15–20+ years of low-cost clean energy.
CAPEX:
You own the system with upfront investment. Eligible for tax depreciation and maximum long-term savings.
OPEX (PPA/RESCO):
Zero investment. Pay only for Solar electricity consumed at a fixed rate lower than grid tariff. We own, operate, and maintain the system.
Approximately 100 sq. ft. per kWp for rooftop Solar.
Example: 500 kWp needs ~50,000 sq. ft.
Ground-mount requires 5 to 6 acres per MW.
Yes, but at 10 - 25% of peak capacity. Solar systems are designed to account for seasonal variations and ensure reliable annual energy generation.
Solar panels last 25 - 30+ years with 80 - 85% performance even after 25 years.
Inverters typically last 10 - 15 years and are replaceable.
Commercial Solar clients can benefit from:
• Accelerated Depreciation: 40% in Year 1
• State incentives: varies by state
• Low GST: 5% on modules
• RECs: sell Renewable Energy Certificates for additional revenue
On Site Solar refers to Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems installed at your facility - typically on rooftops, carports, or ground-mounted structures - to generate electricity where it is consumed.
On Site Solar helps businesses reduce electricity costs, lower carbon emissions, improve energy independence, and protect against rising grid tariffs.
Yes. Industrial buildings, factories, and warehouses with large rooftops and high daytime electricity usage are ideal for On Site Solar installations.
Yes. Most existing commercial and industrial buildings can support rooftop Solar after a structural assessment confirms roof strength and safety.
Excess electricity can be exported to the grid through net metering, subject to local regulations and utility policies.
Most commercial On Site Solar systems are installed within 8–16 weeks after design approval, depending on system size and site conditions.
No. Most On Site Solar systems are grid-tied and do not require batteries.
Battery storage is optional and typically used only when backup power is required.
On Site Solar generates electricity at your facility, while Open Access Solar supplies power from a remote Solar plant through the grid.
Open Access Solar allows businesses to consume Solar power generated at a remote Solar farm (not on your premises) through grid wheeling. Ideal if you lack roof space or operate multiple locations.
Quarterly for small systems, monthly or bi-monthly for large installations.
Regular cleaning prevents 10–20% efficiency loss due to dust and pollution.
Yes. Alligator Solar offers comprehensive O&M and AMC packages including 24/7 remote monitoring, preventive maintenance, cleaning, inverter servicing, and rapid troubleshooting.
