Given the recent curbs on gas supplies to food factories , for example biscuit makers that use gas based ovens for baking, worked with becquer to reduce their overall operating costs by shifting eh electric loads to onsite solar that gives power at a running cost of 20-30 paise per unit kWh, that is 95% cheaper than the grid tariff. This is allowing manufactures of biscuits, snacks, confectionaries, beverages and related commodities to save on operating cash flows, directly improved EBDITA margins, and then redirect those margins to either prepare for shifting to a piped supply or absorb a higher gas price in the short run. The net result being an improved profitability overall, despite war related challenges. From Britannia to Marico, Baskin Robbins to Biskfarm, all brands are relying on Becquer’s solar hardware for a seamless cost reduction path.
Aside that, through its solar manufacturing arm Becsa, continues to redefine the green energy technology in India with the launch of more advanced, high-performance panels designed specifically for hot Indian conditions, building realities and grid related operations challenges enabling onsite battery storage , in a market like India where traditionally all companies have reused the same cookie cutter technology and assembled modules with all the same features.
Becsa recently launched India’s first BIS-approved HJT (Heterojunction Technology) solar module – BEC-HJT, a significant leap over conventional modules used by most OEMs. The HJT modules deliver up to 15% higher power output, 20% better heat tolerance, and lower long-term degradation, translating into substantial additional savings or revenue for MW-scale projects. With a 30-year warranty, these modules are built for long-term reliability in India’s tropical climate. The technology has already been deployed at Asia’s largest power façade installation at D ’décor’s Tarapur facility, and across factories in the automobile, steel, and FMCG sectors.
As put by its founder and product curator, Mr. Sambhav, solar is not just an EPC product or a financial contract as sold by most companies, it is a fundamentally new form of energy creation, transmission and even end use, that mandates materials, designs and manufacturing systems to be re-looked at from its core. For example, it has enabled battery compatibility in its hardwares installed a decade ago, that allows for an easy plug and play today as storage gains use case.
