Commercial and industrial entities deploying innovative renewable energy solutions to reduce operational costs and mitigate power outages
Jodhpur, INDIA – May 1 – Mercom India, a globally recognized leader in clean energy research and consulting, is hosting its C&I (Commercial & Industrial) Clean Energy Meet in Jodhpur in association with Jodhpur Industries Association (JIA), Federation of Rajasthan Trade and Industry (FORTI), and Marudhara Industries Association (MIA). The event will be held at the Fairfield by Marriott in Jodhpur on May 15, 2026.
Jodhpur, the second-largest city in northwest Rajasthan, is an important industrial hub well-suited to large-scale and rooftop solar. As a result, businesses and industrial units in the city are increasingly adopting rooftop solar systems to cut electricity costs and ensure consistent, uninterrupted operations. This exclusive event will include companies from these sectors and feature leading solar players such as Soleos, Ningbo Deye Technology and Gautam Solar.
The event will focus on adoption pathways for clean energy solutions, including how companies can evaluate rooftop solar system sizing, savings potential, and payback periods. For industries with higher energy demand, the event will also cover the process of procuring green power through the open access model, including prevailing tariffs under corporate power purchase agreements (PPAs) and expected savings.
The agenda will also feature a discussion on battery energy storage systems (BESS) and their growing relevance for industries, including their cost-benefit analysis and use cases such as replacing diesel generators and integrating them with solar systems. The event will also include experts from public and private-sector banks, who will provide information on loan products and attractive financial instruments available to support clean energy adoption.
Supported by national- and state-level industry associations, strong industrial clusters, and high solar potential, Jodhpur is increasingly adopting rooftop solar, positioning the city as an emerging centre for sustainable, energy-efficient industrial growth in western India.
