Reitz India, a leading manufacturer of industrial centrifugal fans, has successfully commissioned a 650 kW rooftop solar power system at its manufacturing facility in Isnapur, Andhra Pradesh, significantly reducing its dependency on grid electricity and lowering operational costs. The installation, executed in two phases by Hyderabad-based Freyr Energy, now meets approximately 45% of the companyโ€™s total power consumption.

According to company officials, the solar system generates nearly 60,852 kWh per month and is expected to deliver annual savings of โ‚น6.7 million in electricity bills, in addition to tax benefits estimated at โ‚น2 million, bringing the total annual savings to nearly โ‚น9 million. Prior to the installation, Reitz Indiaโ€™s annual grid electricity expenditure was around โ‚น14 million.

The project was implemented using high-efficiency 540 Wp TOPCon modules supplied by Goldi Solar and Saatvik Solar. The first phase of 500 kW was commissioned in May 2023, followed by an additional 150 kW in July 2025. The rooftop system is fully integrated with an online monitoring platform, enabling real-time performance tracking and energy management.
