India Rooftop Solar Mission Target Rooftop Solar Power 40, 000 MW Roof Area 4. 5 billion sq. ft. Solar Mission 70% of capacity from New construction (~$ 30 Bn) Optimized Solar Roofs Vital

Why Solar Roofs are Vital ü Direction and Slope of the Roof with favorable for Solar Power Generation. ü Design of the roof and Plant ü Avoiding Shadow of any Big/ large chimney or equipment in concept or design phase itself ü Walkways üRoof Aceess ü Safety during installation ü Less Installation time

Study Case – Large Manufacturing Industry North Ridge Line Available Area: 120, 000 sq. ft, Available for Solar: 37, 800 sq. ft. only 315 KW against 1200 KW Takeaways: 70% rooftop area wasted because of improper planning of the building; Loss of 23 Cr Rs. in potential savings.

Study Case – Large MNC Available Roof Area : 2 MW; Suitable for Solar: NIL (load bearing only up to 12 kg/sq. Feet) Lost opportunity of savings of Rs. 52 Cr on electricity cost Takeway: Industrial roofs should be designed with minimum load bearing capacity of 15 kg/sq. Feet or more.

Case Study: Virtual Roofs – Metro Cities face challenge of ROOF area & installed with Utility Equipments. High grid tariff’s 12 – 15 Rs Takeaway: Virtual Roofs / Superstructures may offer viability on Solarising Terraces in Metro Cities over Buildings Image Courtesy: Rely. On Solar
