Royal Agro Chemicals cuts energy costs by 80% with Tata Power Solaroof 

For Royal Agro Chemicals, staying ahead has always meant more than keeping pace with the industry. As leaders in agricultural chemicals manufacturing, they knew that uninterrupted energy was the backbone of production, processing, and day-to-day operations. Yet, two pressing concerns began to impact both performance and profitability: 

 - Rising electricity costs: Conventional power bills were steadily climbing, eroding operational margins. 

 - Dependency on grid power: Heavy reliance on the grid made expenses unpredictable and limited the company’s ability to control costs. 

The leadership realised that an energy shift was no longer optional; it was vital. The answer lay in solar energy: practical in its promise of cost savings, and visionary in its alignment with the company’s values. Rooted in sustainability and organic practices, Royal Agro saw solar as a natural extension of its ethos. Transitioning would not only reduce their carbon footprint but also strengthen their reputation as a green leader in their sector.  

However, the path forward came with its own challenges: 

 - Identifying the right partner: A trusted provider with the technical expertise and proven track record of solar installations was essential. 

 - System design and feasibility: Rooftop solar required careful evaluation of roof capacity, energy demand, and efficiency optimisation. 

 - Assurance of long-term benefits: Beyond installation, Royal Agro wanted measurable cost savings and tangible environmental impact. 

 - Minimal disruption: The solution had to be implemented seamlessly, without affecting the critical daily operations of agricultural production. 

“Why did we choose Tata? It is a legacy brand, of course, but we were also thinking of what is best for the long-term energy consumption of our business and factories.”
