Why Whitefield is going solar fast
- High-income tech corridor — Whitefield residents have higher-than-average BESCOM bills (₹4,000–₹8,000/month) due to large villas, AC usage, and work-from-home setups.
- Villa communities with large roofs — gated communities like Prestige Ozone, Brigade Orchards, and Purva Venezia have plenty of roof space per home.
- Apartment society installations — several Whitefield apartment complexes have installed common-area solar under group applications. We handle society NOC and group filing.
- Good grid infrastructure — BESCOM's Whitefield subdivision processes net metering applications efficiently, with feasibility in 2–3 weeks.

Apartment solar in Whitefield
Whitefield has some of Bengaluru's largest apartment communities. Going solar as a society has unique advantages:
- Economies of scale — a 20 kW system for common areas costs less per kW than individual 3 kW systems.
- Massive savings on common-area bills — lifts, corridor lighting, pumps, clubhouse, and STP consume significant power. Solar can cut this by 60–80%.
- Individual unit applications — in some societies, individual flat owners can apply under PM Surya Ghar if they have allocated roof space. We help navigate this.
We've worked with 5 apartment societies in Whitefield so far and can handle the entire group application, society NOC, BESCOM filing, and installation coordination.
