Freyr Energy Expands Residential Rooftop Solar Initiatives in Uttar Pradesh

Freyr Energy, India’s leading rooftop solar solutions company, is intensifying its efforts to expand in the residential rooftop solar segment in Uttar Pradesh. Building on its commitment to promoting solar energy adoption, Freyr Energy has successfully solarized 10 villages in the Lakhimpur and Bahraich districts, achieving a total installed capacity of over 300 kW. The company has also completed significant solar projects in the state, including Subharti (1 MW), Enertia (450 kW), and Brijbasi Art Press Ltd. (185 kW). With an existing installed solar capacity of 3.4 MW in Uttar Pradesh, Freyr Energy is well-positioned to intensify its expansion into the residential sector.

To accelerate the adoption of residential rooftop solar installations, Freyr Energy is leveraging technology and aims to solarize 1,000 households by March 2025. Addressing financial challenges that have historically hindered solar adoption, the company offers zero-cost EMI loan schemes and facilitates quick loan evaluation. Freyr Energy’s customer-centric approach is evident in its commitment to simplifying the transition to solar energy. The company’s tech platform, the FreyrEnergy App, streamlines the entire solar installation process, ensuring a seamless and hassle-free experience for clients from initial consultation to post-installation services.

Freyr Energy’s initiatives align with the Uttar Pradesh Renewable Energy Policy (MPREP-2022), which aims to achieve 6,000 MW of installed rooftop solar projects by 2026-27. By contributing to the state’s existing achievements in solar energy, Freyr Energy is enhancing Uttar Pradesh’s renewable energy potential and solidifying its impact in the market.

“The Uttar Pradesh government’s proactive approach to solar energy is commendable,” noted Radhika Choudary, Co-founder & Director of Freyr Energy. “The government’s ambitious target of installing 22,000 MW of solar power projects by 2027 reflects a shared vision for a greener future. Freyr Energy is proud to be a part of this transformative journey towards renewable and sustainable energy. With PM Surya Ghar Yojana and the additional state subsidy of up to Rs. 30,000, Uttar Pradesh residents can avail of a joint subsidy of up to Rs. 98,000 for a 3 kW system. These state schemes and incentives are very motivating for customers to transition to solar. By working together with the government and the people of Uttar Pradesh, we at Freyr aim to make solar power accessible to every household.”

This strategic expansion underscores Freyr Energy’s dedication to advancing sustainable energy solutions and supporting the state’s renewable energy goals, contributing to a cleaner and greener future for Uttar Pradesh.
