10KVA Off-Grid Solar System Runs 3 Fuel Dispensers in Jalgaon Petrol Pump
SSPS Sethi Sons HP Petrol Pump, Jalgaon district, Maharashtra
The SSPS Sethi Sons HP petrol pump, owned by Mr. Sethi in Jalgaon district, Maharashtra, faced severe power cuts — and a petrol pump that can't run its dispensers can't do business. Su-Kam installed a 10KVA off-grid solar system to keep the forecourt running on sunlight.
The system powered three fuel dispensers, office equipment and lighting — the station's entire critical load — without leaning on an unreliable grid or burning diesel in a backup generator. For a fuel retailer that meant no lost sales during outages and no recurring generator-fuel bill.
It ran on Su-Kam's DSP sine-wave Solar PCU — a solar-priority design that charges first from the panels and only falls back to the grid when needed. The same platform was deployed at banks, ATMs, hospitals and shopping malls across India.
The Jalgaon installation was early proof that off-grid solar was ready for commercial, revenue-critical use — not just homes, but the businesses that keep a town running.
