REI 2021 | Conversation with Shravil Aggarwal, Director at Floatex Solar Pvt. Ltd.

Floatex Solar, the partnership between Prabh Dayal Om Parkash Group (PDOP) and Purshottam Profiles Pvt. LTD, to manufacture and develop Floating Solar has met with some early and promising success in India. The firm has been involved as the EPC contractor on some of the earliest, and biggest floating solar projects in India. With the projects starting to be commissioned, the firm expects a strong performance in the coming years.

Floating solar, which has a high potential in India, thanks to the many man made reservoirs for storage, hydro generation, and linked to large thermal plants, will be in focus. Experts expect India to install almost 2 GW of floating solar by 2025. Prasanna Singh, Editor Saur Energy, spoke to Shravil Aggarwal of Floatex, to better understand the firm's success so far.
