Solar-Powered Industries: Project Profiles for a Cleaner, Greener Future

Sunlight is free. Electricity bills aren’t. That’s why solar-powered industries are no longer luxury—they’re smart economics. From rice mills to cold storage, solar energy is flipping the math of industrial power.

Why Solar Makes Industrial Sense in Bangladesh

Electricity costs in Bangladesh are rising, and power cuts are frequent in rural areas. Diesel generators are expensive and noisy. Solar solves both:

  • Cuts power costs by 40–70%
  • Runs during load-shedding
  • Reduces carbon footprint (important for exports)
  • Grants eligibility for green finance loans

Besides that, solar earns you respect from regulators and foreign buyers.


Where Solar Fits Best in Industrial Use

Solar doesn’t replace your grid overnight. Instead, it covers the highest daytime load—when industries operate most.

Industry TypeSolar Usage AreaSolar Savings Potential
Rice/Feed MillsMotors, lights, dryers40–55%
Cold StorageCooling systems, fans50–65%
Garments & TextilesLighting, sewing machines30–45%
Dairy/Food IndustryPumps, mixers, packaging45–60%

Net Metering also allows industries to sell excess power back to the national grid—creating an income source.


Budget Outline: 100kW Industrial Solar Plant (On-Grid with Net Metering)

ItemEstimated Cost (BDT)
Solar Panels (Tier-1)35,00,000
Inverter + Controller12,00,000
Mounting & Electrical Hardware6,50,000
Installation & Cabling5,00,000
Net Metering Equipment & License3,00,000
Total Setup Cost61,50,000

Payback Period: 3.8 years
Monthly Savings: 1.2–1.5 lakh BDT
System Life: 20–25 years

That means you generate free electricity for over 16 years after payback.


Financing and Incentives

Green projects get special treatment. You may qualify for:

  • IDCOL solar project financing (up to 80%)
  • Low-interest green loans from banks
  • Tax incentives for renewable energy adoption
  • Carbon credit income (for large setups)

We help you prepare all required documents for green energy proposals, including ROI charts and solar generation reports.


Why RAYHANS for Solar Industrial Projects?

We don’t just “sell panels.” We design industrial energy models. Our solar project services include:

  • Feasibility reports with load analysis
  • ROI & payback calculator
  • AutoCAD layouts for panel installation
  • Sourcing Tier-1 panels (Longi, Jinko, etc.)
  • Setup through certified EPC partners
  • Full documentation for green loan approval

Whether you’re a small mill or a garment giant, we’ll tailor a solar system that fits your exact load—and your budget.


Final Thoughts

The sun doesn’t send bills. So why keep paying the grid more than you should? Solar isn’t just clean—it’s profitable, resilient, and future-proof. At RAYHANS, we make solar projects practical, profitable, and fully documented.
