Built for Comfort. Engineered for Savings.
At Radisson Hotel Gandhidham, energy is the backbone of guest experience. Yet high electricity bills and grid dependency posed a relentless cost challenge —to fix this unique challenge: everything had to work without stopping the hotel's operations. No blackouts. No guest disruptions. Just clean solar energy working silently in the background.
The Real Challenge: Solar at a Working Hotel
Installing solar panels on a 5-star hotel that's always open is incredibly difficult. Unlike factories or offices that can shut down for installation, a hotel never stops. Air conditioning, kitchen equipment, elevators, lights—everything runs 24/7. The solar system had to work perfectly without ever interrupting guest comfort or daily operations.
“"Most solar companies told us they'd have to close down parts of the hotel. Sunbuy figured out how to do it without any interruption." — Hotel Operations Manager, Radisson Gandhidham
How Sunbuy Solved It
Sunbuy didn't use a standard solar installation approach. Instead, they designed a custom solution:
- Studied how much electricity the hotel uses throughout the day to size the solar system correctly.
- Installed 300 KW of solar panels to provide about 35-40% of the hotel's electricity needs.
- Set up the system to work seamlessly with the local electricity grid
- Installed everything during times when it wouldn't affect operations—careful planning and execution.
- Added monitoring systems to track how much energy the solar system is producing daily.
The Results: Real Savings
The solar system started delivering results:
- Saves ₹39,42,000 in electricity costs every year
- Generates 4,92,750 kilowatt-hours of clean electricity annually
- Reduces the hotel's need to buy grid electricity by 35-40%
- Cuts peak-hour electricity costs significantly (2-4 PM is typically expensive)
“"Our electricity bills dropped immediately. The entire process went smoothly with zero disruption. Best business decision." — Finance Manager, Radisson Gandhidham
Why This Project Is Important
Hotels spend a lot on electricity. This project proves that solar energy works perfectly for hotels—without any of the risks that installers usually warn about. At Radisson Gandhidham, solar didn't complicate operations. It improved them resulting in lower energy bills. More predictable costs & a smaller carbon footprint along with zero disruption to guests.
