250 KW Solar Project for JR Cotton Purna

Client: Mr. Manish Mundada (Owner, J R Cotton)
Location: Purna, Maharashtra
Project Capacity: 250 kW
Client’s Representative: Mr. Manish Mundada

Project Overview:

Our journey with J R Cotton started through a recommendation from Mr. Pranay Omprakash Dalia, the owner of Prakash White Gold, Hinganghat, where we successfully installed a 250 kW solar system. Impressed with our performance, Mr. Dalia recommended Chirayu Power Pvt. Ltd. to Mr. Manish Mundada, the owner of J R Cotton.

From the beginning, Mr. Mundada’s keen technical expertise and his interest in solar technology pushed us to deliver our best. He meticulously evaluated every technical detail, installation method, and safety measure, ensuring we met his high expectations before awarding us the project.

This project was unique due to its timing—the installation had to take place during the peak cotton ginning season while the factory was operating at full capacity. This meant no interruptions were allowed during installation, a challenge that Chirayu Power took head-on and executed successfully, ensuring zero production downtime.

Given the flammable environment from cotton fibers, safety was paramount. We followed strict safety protocols during welding and fabrication work, using fire blankets, extinguishers, and designated fire watchers. The team’s commitment to safety and quality led to the successful and incident-free execution of the project.
