Why Go Solar in Visakhapatnam?
Visakhapatnam benefits from Andhra Pradesh's strong solar resource — 5.5–6 peak sun hours per day. Electricity bills for typical Visakhapatnam households range from ₹2,500 to ₹6,000 per month; a 3 kW rooftop system can eliminate most of that cost. With the PM Surya Ghar subsidy bringing a 3 kW system down to just ₹1,32,000 net, and payback in roughly 4.5 years, rooftop solar is one of the best investments available to Visakhapatnam homeowners today.

What's specific to Visakhapatnam
Visakhapatnam is Andhra Pradesh's largest city — a port and steel hub with a fast-growing IT corridor and dense coastal high-rises. Each rooftop type needs a different approach, and the sea air adds one more. Here is what our engineers plan for on Vizag rooftops:
- High-rise apartments (MVP Colony, Madhurawada, Rushikonda): A single flat can't go solar alone, but the society can — common-area lighting, lifts and water pumps on a shared rooftop system.
- Coastal salt-laden air: On the coast we specify corrosion-resistant, hot-dip-galvanised (marine-grade) mounting and coated hardware so the structure lasts — this is the #1 thing we design for in Vizag.
- Independent houses (Seethammadhara, Gajuwaka): Flat RCC roofs suit a 3–5 kW system.
- IT offices & commercial (Rushikonda IT hub, Dwaraka Nagar): Daytime-load offices typically fit 10–50 kW with accelerated depreciation.
- Industrial belt (Gajuwaka / Steel Plant area): Large rooftop commercial & industrial systems for factories and warehouses.
