Agricultural Cooperative Solar Expansion
Customer: Green Valley Cooperative
"The solar solution from Aadhi has transformed our operations. We now run our irrigation systems entirely on renewable energy, reducing our operational costs by 60%."
The Challenge
The cooperative faced escalating electricity costs for irrigation and cold storage operations. Traditional grid power was unreliable during peak irrigation season, leading to crop losses. The facility consumed an average of 150 kWh daily, with annual electricity bills exceeding ₹18 lakhs.
The Solution
Aadhi Solar designed and installed a 50 kWp rooftop solar system with battery storage capability. The system was integrated with existing agricultural equipment, including irrigation pumps and cold storage units. Smart monitoring enabled real-time tracking of energy generation and consumption.

Project Outcomes & Impact
The installation was completed in 4 months and operational since March 2024. The system has delivered consistent performance through the hot summer months and monsoon season. The cooperative has reduced grid dependence by 75% and saved approximately ₹9 lakhs in the first 6 months of operation.
Annual CO₂ emissions reduced by 240 tons, equivalent to planting 4,000 trees
System payback period: 5.2 years with government subsidies
Increased operational efficiency with 24/7 energy availability
