For factories & warehouses
Industrial & Commercial Solar
Factory roofs are the largest untapped generation asset in Bangladesh. We turn them into a hedge against tariff increases — and into compliance evidence your buyers now demand.
- Designed for
- Factories, warehouses, RMG units, cold storage
- Typical capacity
- 50 kWp – 5 MWp
- Indicative payback
- 3 – 5 years
The case
For a manufacturer, electricity is not an overhead u2014 it is a variable cost that moves against you. Every industrial tariff revision compresses margin on contracts you have already signed. A solar array fixes a share of that cost for twenty-five years at the moment of commissioning.
The economics are unusually good in industry because the load profile matches the resource. Factories draw hardest between 09:00 and 17:00, which is precisely when a rooftop array generates. Self-consumption is high, export is low, and payback is correspondingly short.
There is a second return that increasingly matters more than the first. Global buyers u2014 particularly in apparel u2014 now audit Scope 2 emissions. Metered, documented on-site renewable generation is the cleanest evidence you can put in front of them.

Why it pays
What you actually get
Tariff protection
Locks in the cost of a large slice of your consumption at today's rate, insulating you from future industrial tariff revisions.
Load-matched generation
Peak production coincides with peak factory demand, so nearly all generation is self-consumed at full retail value.
Auditable Scope 2 reduction
Metered generation data supports buyer ESG audits, LEED and Higg FEM submissions.
Diesel displacement
Reduces generator run-hours during grid interruptions, cutting fuel spend and maintenance.
The process
From first call to handover
-
01
Energy audit
Load profiling, tariff analysis and structural assessment of the shed roof or ground area.
-
02
Engineering & financials
Single-line diagrams, structural calculations, generation modelling and an IRR/payback model.
-
03
Approvals
We prepare and file utility interconnection and net-metering documentation on your behalf.
-
04
EPC & O&M
Turnkey construction, commissioning, and an ongoing operations and maintenance contract with performance reporting.
Questions
About industrial
Most modern industrial roofs can. A modern array adds roughly 12u201315 kg/mu00b2. We complete a structural assessment before design and specify ballast or reinforcement if required.
No. Work is carried out from the roof and staged so that tie-ins happen during planned shutdowns or off-shift hours.
Yes. Several banks and NBFIs in Bangladesh offer green-energy credit lines for industrial solar, and IDCOL refinancing may apply. We can prepare the technical annexes lenders require.
