With a 25- year partnership built with clients on measurable performance, transparent communication, and deep technical grounding, Prabhat Renewable Energy and Agro Limited (PREAL) approaches this equation with a conviction that solar is not just a product.
Founded on the belief that ‘harnessing green energy for better tomorrow’, the company serves as a partner in sustainable energy transition, empowering commercial, industrial, and institutional clients with clean, affordable, and reliable energy solutions.
At the heart of PREAL’s journey stands a strong driving force V. M. Tiwari, whose vision for sustainable growth guides the company. The strong technical support and execution team ensures the handholding support to the clients and which has transformed PREAL into a trusted partner for corporates.
“While leadership defines direction, it is the team and technical support that delivers impact”, says Anand Wagh, Technical Director, PREAL. At the company, human resources and finance are not mere back-office functions, they are strategic enablers.
By recruiting toptier design engineers, empowering on-site managers, and ensuring project financing through own NBFC arm facilitates the smooth CAPEX management
From the earliest design schematics to final commissioning, every milestone is achieved through this cross-functional cohesion.
From First Conversation to Final Megawatt
PREAL’s strength lies in its technocommercial approach; a disciplined balance of innovation, cost control, and ROI-focused delivery. Each project is assigned a dedicated relationship manager who acts as the single point of contact from design to execution.
Behind them is a coordinated team of design engineers, technical specialists, liaison officers, and project heads who ensure that the client never navigates technical decisions in isolation. Using 3D drawings and PVsyst analytical reports, clients can visualize the system layout as well as its projected generation and return on investment over project lifecycle of 25 years.
Off-site solar plants installed in PREAL’s Solar Park through green energy open access extends techno-commercial solution for energy cost reduction as well achieving emission reduction objective
The solar project installations are supported with Web based real time online monitoring support system to track the solar plant generation and performance. Maintenance teams, equipped with automated alerts, carry out scheduled cleanings, inverter checks, and system health audits. These are essential for sustaining the capacity utilization factor (CUF) commitments required under utility sector agreements.
Engineering for Reliability in India’s Climatic Realities
The optimized DC-AC ratio during the design phase, selecting inverters with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) capabilities, and incorporating battery storage in critical locations helps to achieve optimum energy cost savings.
Design generations simulated with policy and regulatory limitations to offset the generated electricity carefully designed solutions helps to optimize capital cost and savings while installing the solar plants. Solar plants performance is tracked periodically to ensure early detection and rectification of any performance drop. These measures directly protect the client’s projected RoI and contractual generation guarantees.
The company has already executed multiple large-scale solar projects and is targeting aggressive installations in the near term. On the technology front, advancements in technology driven diagnostics are set to play a larger role in its design and O&M workflows, shortening response times and improving maintenance. This dual focus on engineering precision and business sustainability positions PREAL as a trusted partner of choice for clients for energy management.
