Solar stops at sunset. The load does not.
A factory that runs three shifts draws its heaviest load in the evening, exactly when a solar plant is producing nothing. Without storage, that block of demand goes back to the grid at the most expensive tariff of the day.
The battery charges on surplus generation through the middle of the day and discharges into the evening peak — so more of what the plant makes is actually consumed on site, and less of the expensive block is bought.
Two plants sharing one point of interconnection.
Storage adds a bidirectional converter, an energy management system, a fire strategy and a protection scheme that has to satisfy the state inspectorate alongside the solar plant — not instead of it.
We engineer both sides, so the dispatch logic, the metering and the approvals are designed once, together, by the people who will also operate them.
What 55 acres looks like halfway through.
Photographed in July 2026, while the plant was being built. Rows going in from one edge, mounting structures still bare at the other, and the electrical works running in parallel.

This is the difference between an EPC and a platform.
22.5 MWp on 55 acres is a different discipline from a rooftop — land, survey, grading, an internal road network, a 33 kV interconnection and a state inspectorate approval. We do that work ourselves.
Sizing a battery against a real load curve, and then integrating it, is where most solar companies stop and hand you a subcontractor. Storage is our own scope.
An increasing share of what we build we also own and operate. That changes how you specify a plant — you stop optimising for handover and start optimising for year fifteen.
The plant is under construction and figures are as designed. Commercial terms, the offtaker and the financing structure are confidential. Generation and storage performance are governed by the availability, round-trip efficiency and capacity guarantees in the contract.
