Solar Panel Installation in Perungudi
Office load matches generation almost exactly, which is why payback here is often three to four years
Perungudi is two things at once. A dense IT office belt along the OMR frontage, and older residential pockets sitting immediately behind it. The office buildings are newer, larger and commercially straightforward. The residential streets behind them are older, lower-lying and need a different approach.

The local picture
The corridor at the front, older streets behind
Perungudi’s OMR frontage carries one of the denser concentrations of IT offices in Chennai, while the streets behind it hold older residential stock and apartment blocks that predate the corridor. The two need different solar approaches, and the dividing line runs roughly parallel to the main road.
For the office belt
Consumption falls squarely in working hours
Which is close to an ideal solar match and makes offices among the better commercial sites in the city.
Roof area is constrained by plant
Chillers, AHUs and condenser banks occupy space and require maintenance access, so usable area is well below gross.
Demand charges are not displaced by solar
A commercial connection pays a fixed charge on sanctioned or recorded maximum demand, and rooftop solar does not reliably reduce it. Solar reduces the energy charge. Any proposal implying the bill disappears has not modelled this.
Non-domestic consumers are generally on net feed-in
Rather than one-for-one net metering, so exports earn below the tariff paid on imports. Size to daytime self-consumption.
For the residential streets behind
Older stock, tighter plots
And usable roof area frequently below what the terrace suggests.
Low-lying ground
Parts of Perungudi sit close to the Pallikaranai marsh and have a history of water logging. The panels are safe on the roof, but the inverter, distribution boxes and protection equipment should be mounted at a height that accounts for it, and cable routing planned away from low points. It costs nothing extra when decided before installation.
Apartment blocks
Many of them older, where the association route applies and terrace structural condition should be assessed before anchoring an array.

Residential
Solar for Perungudi homes
Apartment associations
The practical route for most flat owners here, with common-area systems covering lifts, pumps, STP and corridor lighting at ₹18,000 per kW.
Independent houses
In the older pockets, typically installing 2 kW to 4 kW once usable area is measured properly.
Inverter mounting height
A real design decision in the lower-lying parts, not a detail.
Commercial and industrial
Solar for Perungudi businesses
The IT office belt is the primary commercial market. Every commercial project starts with an energy audit covering load profile, tariff category, contract demand and recorded maximum demand, because that determines the system size rather than the roof.
IT offices and tech parks
Excellent daytime load match, commercial tariffs, and accelerated depreciation of up to 40% in year one for a profitable company.
Support businesses
Along the service road, including food service, retail and clinics. Evening-weighted for some, and roof rights come first on leased premises.
Warehousing and light commercial
On the fringes, where roof area often exceeds what the load justifies.
What we install
What we install in Perungudi
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.
Free, no obligation

Been promised your bill will vanish?
It will not. Solar cuts the energy charge, not the demand charge, and network charges apply. We model all three so the number you see is the number you get.
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 Perungudi, common questions
No. Solar reduces the energy charge on units generated during working hours, which for an office is a substantial share since consumption matches generation well. It does not reliably reduce demand charges, which are levied on sanctioned or recorded maximum demand and can peak outside generating hours. Network charges also apply to prosumers, and a credible proposal models all three.
The panels do not, since they sit on the roof, but the inverter and protection equipment can. In the lower-lying parts near the marsh, that equipment should be mounted at a height that accounts for the area’s history, with cable routing planned away from low points. It costs nothing extra when decided before installation rather than after.
Usually, though less than the roof plate suggests. Chillers, air handling units and condenser banks occupy space, cast shade and need maintenance access preserved. We measure usable area rather than working from gross figures, and size against your daytime load rather than the space available, since exported units earn well below what you pay on imports.
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.
