Solar Panel Installation in Maraimalai Nagar
Industrial and township housing both handled, with the right survey for each
Maraimalai Nagar was planned as an industrial township, which means the factories and the housing that serves them sit in the same place. That is unusual, and it means a solar conversation here can start from either end: a plant with a sheet roof, or a household two roads away.

Project record
The local picture
One town, two completely different projects
Maraimalai Nagar’s planned township structure puts manufacturing plants and residential housing within the same locality, and the two need entirely different approaches. Industrial sites here are sheet-roofed with HT connections and demand that usually exceeds what a roof can serve. The residential township is planned housing on regular plots with straightforward flat terraces and predictable structure.
For the industrial side
Anchor plants and ancillary units
Along the GST Road corridor, with the same split as elsewhere in the belt: large sites with balance sheet for CAPEX, smaller units often better served by OPEX where taxable profit is limited.
Non-domestic consumers are generally on net feed-in
Rather than one-for-one net metering, so size to daytime self-consumption rather than to available roof.
Solar reduces the energy charge, not the demand charge
Which on an HT connection remains substantial.
Installation around production
With shutdown windows booked well in advance.
For the residential township
Planned layout advantages
Regular plots, rectangular terraces, wide roads and easy installation access. Inter-building shading is less common than in organically grown localities.
Predictable structure
Since township housing was built to common specifications, though later extensions vary as everywhere.
Systems typically 3 kW to 5 kW
With three-phase required above 4,000 watts of connected load.
A third layer
The GST Road corridor
Showrooms, warehousing and logistics operations with their own load patterns, where roof area frequently exceeds what the load justifies and correct sizing matters more than filling the roof.

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.

Not sure whether you need an audit or a survey?
Plants get a load profile analysis. Houses get a roof survey. We start with the right one rather than the same one.
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 Maraimalai Nagar, common questions
Entirely. An industrial site starts with an energy audit covering load profile, contract demand and shift pattern, because that determines the system size and the roof only constrains it. A house starts with a roof survey and a sanctioned load check. Maraimalai Nagar has both within the same township, so we begin with the right one.
Because non-domestic consumers in Tamil Nadu are generally on net feed-in rather than one-for-one net metering, so exported units are compensated well below the commercial tariff paid on imports. A unit consumed on site saves the full tariff; a unit exported earns a fraction of it.
It was planned rather than grown. Plots are regular, terraces tend to be rectangular and unobstructed, roads are wide enough for easy material access, and the original construction followed common specifications. Later extensions vary, as they do everywhere, and those are assessed at the survey.
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.
