2900 KW Solar Project for Simplex Chemopack Pvt Ltd

Simplex Chemopack Pvt. Ltd. Advances Sustainability with 2.9 MW Solar Installation

Simplex Chemopack Pvt. Ltd., located in Butibori, Nagpur, is a leading export-oriented company that has specialized in the production of Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (FIBCs), PP woven fabrics, woven bags, PR liners, and allied products for over a decade. With an annual manufacturing capacity of 8 million FIBCs and 60 million woven PP bags, the company requires substantial energy to maintain its large-scale operations.

Recognizing the need to optimize operational costs and promote sustainability, Mr. Kunjan Sarda (Director) made a strategic decision to invest in solar energy. Chirayu Power Pvt. Ltd. proudly collaborated with Simplex Chemopack Pvt. Ltd. to execute two solar power projects with a combined capacity of 2.9 MW (2,900 kW).

1st Solar Project: 2,000 kW (2 MW)

Technical Specifications

• Total Capacity: 2,000 kW (2 MW)
• Solar Panels: Waaree Energies 575 Wp (N-Type Topcon Technology)
• Total Number of Panels: 3,478
• Inverter Brand: SolarEdge
• Inverter Configuration:
  • 100 kVA × 15 units
  • 66 kVA × 1 unit
  • 33 kVA × 1 unit

Why Waaree Energies 575 Wp N-Type Topcon Panels?

• Higher Energy Yield: Up to 5% more generation than conventional P-Type panels
• Improved Efficiency: Superior performance in high-temperature environments
• Lower Degradation: Long-term reliability and higher ROI

Why SolarEdge Inverters?

• Module-Level Monitoring for real-time tracking
• Optimized Energy Harvesting even in partial shading
• Enhanced Safety with built-in protection mechanisms

Earthing and Lightning Protection

• Earthing: 14 copper earthing rods (17 × 3 meters)
• Lightning Arrestors: 14 copper LAs + 6 ESE LAs (108 m radius)

2nd Solar Project: 900 kW

Following the success of the first project, Chirayu Power implemented a second solar system to further optimize energy savings:

Technical Specifications

• Total Capacity: 900 kW
• Solar Panels: Jinko Solar 590 Wp (Mono PERC, High Efficiency)
• Total Number of Panels: 1,526
• Inverter Brand: SolarEdge
• Inverter Configuration:
  • 100 kVA × 7 units

Note: All protection, SCADA monitoring, and design principles remain consistent with the 2 MW installation, ensuring operational uniformity and ease of maintenance.

Combined Benefits & Impact (2.9 MW Total)

• Annual Generation: Approx. 4,500,000 units
• Unit Generation per kW: ~1550 units/kW/year
• CO₂ Offset: Massive reduction in emissions contributing to a greener planet
• Tree Equivalent: Equal to planting over 250,000 trees
• Energy Cost Savings: Significant reduction in electricity expenses
• Depreciation Benefit: 40% depreciation under Indian tax rules, improving ROI
• Operational Efficiency: Stable power supply reduces manufacturing downtime

Monitoring & Control Systems

• SCADA System Installed: For real-time weather monitoring, PR, CUF, and system analytics
• Daily Monitoring: Live data on generation, consumption, load profile & patterns
• Behind-the-Meter Setup: Directly powers the facility, optimizing self-consumption
• Hybrid Installation: Mix of rooftop and ground-mounted structures
