The local picture
A district headquarters, not just an industrial town
Chengalpattu combines the institutional building stock of a district headquarters with the industrial base of the GST Road corridor and steadily growing residential development. Institutional buildings, hospitals and colleges each have distinct load patterns, and the sizing logic for each differs considerably from a factory or a house.
Institutional and healthcare buildings
Hospitals run continuously
So solar addresses the daytime portion. It sits alongside existing DG and UPS rather than replacing either, since a grid-tied system shuts down during an outage by design.
Roof congestion on healthcare buildings is significant
With plant, tanks and vents occupying area and requiring maintenance access.
Administrative and government buildings
Have good daytime load matching generation, though the decision route is procedural and slower than a private one.
Colleges and educational campuses
Size to term-time load, not annual average
A campus generates most during the long vacation when it is closed, and as non-domestic consumers on net feed-in that surplus sells back well below what the campus pays for imports.
Residential campuses with hostels
Behave differently again, with substantial evening, night and vacation baseline.
Most operate as trusts
So accelerated depreciation may be worth nothing and an OPEX structure often compares better.
The rest of the picture
Industry on the corridor, and residential growth around it
Industry follows the standard belt pattern: sheet roofs, HT connections, sizing to daytime self-consumption, and demand charges that solar does not displace. Residential growth brings straightforward projects on larger plots than inner Chennai, typically 3 kW to 6 kW with three-phase required above 4,000 watts of connected load.

The process
How installation works
Free site survey
Shade-free roof area measured across the day, structure checked, connection name and sanctioned load confirmed.
Design and itemised quotation
Sized against twelve months of consumption, with every component named.
Approvals filed
PM Surya Ghar and TANGEDCO net metering, plus load enhancement or phase conversion in parallel where needed.
Installation
One to three days for a residential system, carried out by our own team rather than subcontracted.
Inspection and commissioning
TANGEDCO inspects, both meters go in, the system goes live.
Subsidy tracked to your account
And two years of maintenance included from commissioning.
We check the name on your electricity connection at the survey, because a mismatch stops more applications than any technical issue. See what to keep ready.

Been quoted from a template?
A hospital, a college and a factory need three different answers. We start from your load profile rather than a standard proposal.
What happens after you send your details
- We call you within one working day, and an engineer rather than a salesperson attends the site.
- The survey is free. We measure usable area and shading, check your connection and sanctioned load, and photograph the site.
- You get an itemised quotation naming every component and brand, with the subsidy or depreciation position set out.
- No obligation at any point. If solar does not make sense for your property, we will say so.
Common questions
Solar in Chengalpattu, common questions
No. A standard grid-tied system shuts down during a grid outage as a mandatory safety function that protects line workers, so a hospital’s outage cover continues to come from its DG sets and UPS. What solar does is reduce the electricity bill during normal grid operation, which for a continuously running facility is substantial.
Against term-time daytime load rather than annual average. A campus generates most during the long vacation when it is closed, and institutions are non-domestic consumers on net feed-in rather than net metering, so that surplus sells back below what the campus pays for imports. Residential campuses with hostels behave differently, carrying a substantial evening and vacation baseline.
Frequently, since plot sizes here support systems of 5 kW and above and TANGEDCO supplies three-phase above 4,000 watts of connected load. The conversion is a separate application that must complete before commissioning, so we file it alongside the net metering application to keep the two running in parallel.
Six to ten weeks from survey to a live, net-metered system, with TANGEDCO approval and meter installation the main variable. The installation itself is one to three days for a residential system, and longer for a commercial or industrial project.
Yes. We file the PM Surya Ghar application and the TANGEDCO net metering application, follow both through the section office, and track the subsidy to your bank account. We also check the name on your electricity connection at the survey, since a mismatch stops applications more often than any technical issue.
Two years of free maintenance from commissioning, covering panel cleaning, annual inspection of connections and structure, generation monitoring and warranty coordination with the manufacturer.
