What is solar EPC?

Solar EPC stands for Solar Engineering, Procurement, and Construction. It refers to the entire process involved in the design, installation, and commissioning of a solar power system, typically a large-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) project.

Here's a breakdown of the components of Solar EPC:

Engineering:
This phase involves the detailed engineering and design of the solar power system. It includes determining the optimal configuration, sizing and layout of solar panels, inverters, mounting structures, and other necessary equipment. Engineering also encompasses electrical and civil design, including grid integration, system performance modeling, and structural analysis.

In the procurement phase, all the required equipment and materials for the solar project are sourced and purchased. This includes solar panels, inverters, mounting structures, electrical components, cables, and other necessary hardware. The procurement process may involve selecting suppliers, negotiating contracts, and ensuring the timely delivery of materials to the project site.

Construction:
Once the equipment and materials are available, the construction phase begins. It involves the actual installation of the solar power system on-site. This includes assembling and installing solar panels, mounting structures, inverters, and other electrical components. The construction phase also encompasses civil works, such as site preparation, foundation installation, and electrical wiring.

Commissioning:
After the construction is completed, the solar power system goes through a commissioning process. This involves testing and verifying the functionality and performance of the system. It includes conducting electrical tests, inspecting the installation for compliance with standards and regulations, and ensuring that all components are working properly. The commissioning phase concludes with the system being connected to the electrical grid and starting commercial operation.

Solar EPC companies are responsible for overseeing and managing all these stages, from initial planning to final commissioning. They handle the entire project, coordinating with various stakeholders, managing subcontractors, ensuring quality control, and adhering to safety standards. The goal is to deliver a fully operational solar power system that meets the client's requirements and generates clean, renewable energy.

Solar EPC services by ChemiTech Group

Chemi Tech has executed a large number of Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Commissioning projects for more than 34 years now. We have undertaken a vast number of projects for both Public sector as well as Private sector clients and have successfully delivered the same with a very high quality and engineering precision. All the projects and structures developed by us have withstood the test of time and are known for minimal maintenance required in them.

Due to a vast experience in developing Solar EPC projects in some of the most difficult terrains of the country, we have a very skilled and experienced team on our payroll who complete the projects with utmost care and minimum cost of ownership for our clients.

We have a clear philosophy while designing and executing projects, maximum generation and minimum maintenance. We ensure that customers do not have to go for expensive AMC contracts with us after their solar plants have been set-up.

Our strength lies in the fact that external dependence for manpower is minimal and it is our self-trained and developed manpower who works on each project diligently. We also have our own network of partners, dealers, distributors and vendors in every part of the country, who ensure that our Solar rooftop and ground mount projects have least downtime due to fast service in any part of the country.

We specialise in executing Solar Rooftop projects, both on-grid and off-grid for residential, industrial, commercial and institutional clients. Our project portfolio is spread from Kashmir to Tamil Nadu and from Gujarat to West Bengal.

We have executed more than 100 MW projects till now and another 75 MW is in pipeline, which comprises of both Rooftop and Ground based solar power plants. Our key strengths are:

• 1. 32 years of experience in Electrical, civil and mechanical engineering
• 2. Customized best solutions for each site and customer for maximum life of the asset
• 3. Optimum balance of Cost and Quality with a focus for in-time execution
• 4. In-house design team
• 5. Solutions in both Capex and Opex Models
• 6. Experienced team of O&M Engineers for continued high performance generation
• 7. Stringent checks for quality control and use of only best in class materials
• 8. Strong experience in Government Liasoning, necessary for relevant approvals.
• 9. Pan-India presence, strong local support in any region
• 10. Own distribution, thus, stringent Supply Chain Management and material control
• 11. Own manufacturing of Junction boxes (ACDB, DCDB and other solar junction boxes) and FRP walkways.
• 12. Total control over supply chain management.
