2300 KW Solar Project for Kirti Gold Latur

Client: Kirti Gold
Location: Additional Latur MIDC, Harangul Bk.., Latur, Maharashtra
Capacity: 2300 kW
Client’s Representative: Mr. Anand Bhutda

Project Overview:

Located in Latur, Kirti Gold is a well-known name in the solvent industry, specializing in the production of edible oil. Their commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency led them to opt for a 2300 kW solar system, making it the largest Behind-the-meter solar project in Maharashtra for the edible oil sector. This innovative solar system allows Kirti Gold to consume the electricity generated by the solar system directly, without exporting any power to MSEDCL.

This project stands as a milestone in Latur, utilizing cutting-edge technologies to generate power for the factory, making it the largest Behind-the-meter solar project in the region. The use of advanced technologies like shadowless structures, PLC SCADA systems, and zero export devices ensures maximum efficiency and reliability.

Total Installed Capacity: 2300 kW

• Panels: Waaree 575 Wp Topcon Bifacial Panels (4000 Nos)
• Inverters: Sungrow Inverters (125 kVA x multiple units)
• Annual Generation: 36.8 Lakh Units
• Annual Savings: ₹84 Lakh

Project Highlights

1. Shadowless Structure:
   • A high-end solar structure was used, specifically designed for the Topcon bifacial panels. The structure’s shadowless design maximizes energy capture and ensures optimal performance throughout the day.
2. Zero Export System:
   • This solar installation is configured as a zero-export system, which means the energy generated is directly consumed by the Kirti Gold plant, ensuring no electricity is fed back to the grid.
3. Cutting-Edge Technology:
   • The project incorporates advanced technologies such as:
     • PLC SCADA system for real-time monitoring and management
     • Solar street lights for sustainable lighting across the premises
     • CCTV cameras for enhanced security
     • Automatic cleaning system to ensure optimal panel performance
     • Safety cable trays and fire-fighting systems to safeguard the infrastructure
4. Ground Mount Structure:
   • The solar panels are installed on GI south-tilted ground mount structures, offering durability and stability in harsh weather conditions, with the ability to withstand wind speeds up to 150 km/h.
5. Inverter Protection:
   • Each inverter is housed under a Tin Shed to protect it from rainwater and ensure uninterrupted functioning in all weather conditions.
6. ACDB Panel Protection:
   • The ACDB panel is also protected with a shed, safeguarding it from weather damage and enhancing system longevity.

Performance and Savings

• Annual Energy Generation:
  The system generates 36.8 lakh units of electricity annually, significantly reducing reliance on grid power and ensuring cost savings.
• Awards and Recognition:
  This project has been recognized as the “Best Solar System of the Year” by MEDA (Maharashtra Energy Development Agency), owing to its innovative design, efficiency, and environmental benefits.
