⚙️ Benefits to Shivalik Bimetals Ltd

1. Massive Reduction in Electricity Costs

Industrial electricity rates are among the highest in India. By switching to solar, Shivalik Bimetals can expect to save lakhs of rupees annually on power bills. The 650 kW system generates substantial energy that offsets grid consumption during peak operational hours, delivering immediate cost savings and long-term financial stability.

2. Energy Independence and Reliability

With solar energy powering a significant portion of their operations, Shivalik Bimetals becomes less dependent on grid fluctuations or tariff hikes. This enhances their production reliability, reduces downtime, and gives them greater control over their energy sourcing.

3. Environmental Leadership

The 650 kW solar system helps offset approximately 850 tons of CO₂ emissions annually, which is equivalent to planting over 12,000 trees every year. This positions Shivalik Bimetals as a responsible industry leader committed to reducing its carbon footprint and embracing cleaner industrial practices.

4. Support for ESG & Green Certifications

With growing emphasis on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards, adopting solar energy contributes directly to Shivalik Bimetals’ ESG reporting and eligibility for green certifications, preferred vendor status, and international supply chain opportunities.

5. Government Incentives and Tax Benefits

By installing a rooftop solar plant, Shivalik Bimetals benefits from accelerated depreciation, GST savings, and possible state-level subsidies, significantly improving the project’s return on investment (ROI).

6. Low Maintenance and Long-Term Returns

Solar power systems have a life expectancy of 25+ years and require minimal maintenance. Ekam Energy’s engineering excellence ensures that the plant runs at optimal efficiency with regular performance monitoring, maximizing energy output and ROI.
