Bergen Pipe Supports India Pvt. Ltd now powered by a 700 kilowatt rooftop solar system from Orb Energy

Orb Energy (“Orb”) on Thursday announced that it has successfully installed and commissioned a 700-kilowatt rooftop solar system (350kWp as phase 1 in the year 2023 and now added another 350kWp as Phase 2) at Bergen Pipe Supports India Pvt Ltd in Sri City near here.

This installation will help ‘Bergen Pipe Supports’ to generate over 10 lakh units of electricity per year by harnessing solar energy to meet the factory’s electricity 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 generally provides commercial and industrial customers a 3 to 4-year payback, after which power from solar is effectively free. To make rooftop solar more affordable for all commercial and industrial customers, Orb offers its own in-house, collateral-free solar finance for up to 5 years, according to a press release.
