Top Solar Companies in Uttar Pradesh for Industry (2026)

The short answer

Uttar Pradesh's industrial solar shortlist combines national C&I players with strong UP presence — Tata Power Solar, Amplus Solar, Fourth Partner Energy and CleanMax — alongside UP-based specialists such as Teravolt Solar (Kanpur), Bankey Bihari Renewable Energy (Agra) and Solar Oorja (Noida). For mid-size factories in the 100 kW–5 MW band, the decisive factors are discom fluency (UPPCL/PVVNL/NPCL territory) and honest execution — not brand scale.

TL;DR

• UP's industrial demand clusters in the Noida–Greater Noida–Ghaziabad belt, the Kanpur–Unnao manufacturing cluster, and Lucknow — with commercial tariffs around ₹8–12/kWh that make rooftop payback realistic in three to five years post-tax.
• Net metering / net billing runs under UPERC's framework with different caps across discoms; open access is narrower in UP than in Haryana or Rajasthan.
• No company paid for inclusion in this list, including ours. Verify every claim directly with the vendor.

How this list was put together

This is not a paid ranking. Entries were selected from publicly available information — company websites, MNRE's ALMM lists, UPERC orders and coverage of UP's industrial solar market. National players are grouped by UP presence; the UP-based specialists are described in the same factual terms as everyone else. Treat this as a shortlist and verify credentials, references and O&M terms with each vendor before awarding. Our EPC selection guide is the checklist to use.

The UP solar market in one paragraph

Uttar Pradesh is India's most populous state and its industrial power map splits into distinct corridors: the Gautam Buddha Nagar–Ghaziabad belt (Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad) that behaves like extended Delhi NCR, the Kanpur–Unnao leather and manufacturing cluster, and the Lucknow market of institutions and mid-size industry. Rooftop economics work — commercial tariffs around ₹8–12/kWh, strong irradiance, 40% accelerated depreciation — but regulatory treatment differs by discom and capacity: our PVVNL/Ghaziabad guide, NPCL/Greater Noida guide and UPPCL industrial guide cover the differences. Noida's Sector 62/63 office belt and the Surajpur industrial area are the densest C&I rooftop markets.

The shortlist

1. Tata Power Solar

India's most established solar EPC brand with a strong UP presence across utility-scale and C&I rooftop segments. For large corporate and institutional buyers in Noida, Lucknow or Kanpur, it is the default brand-name choice with tier-1 supply chains and national service reach.

2. Amplus Solar

PETRONAS-backed C&I specialist with a substantial NCR–UP footprint, particularly in the Noida–Greater Noida belt. Strong for large rooftops and for corporates exploring RESCO/OPEX structures or open-access procurement.

3. Fourth Partner Energy

A national C&I developer active in UP's industrial corridors, best known for multi-megawatt rooftop and open-access projects under RESCO structures for corporate offtakers.

4. CleanMax

One of India's largest C&I-focused solar companies, delivering corporate RESCO/OPEX programs and open-access portfolios for large consumers, including operations in the NCR-adjacent UP belt.

5. Teravolt Solar

A Kanpur-headquartered, self-performing EPC founded in 2017, whose own engineers stamp drawings and in-house crews build plants — its published portfolio includes a 2.4 MW industrial rooftop in Kanpur and a 1.8 MW campus carport in Noida, delivered with full EPC + O&M. A genuine Kanpur-region alternative to NCR-centric firms.

6. Bankey Bihari Renewable Energy (BBRE)

An Agra-headquartered EPC founded in 2022 that reports over 3 MW delivered across utility, commercial and residential segments, and received the Silver Award for Commercial Solar EPC projects at the Uttar Pradesh Annual Solar Awards 2025 (Suryacon, Lucknow). Active in the Agra–Lucknow belt — its published portfolio includes a rooftop plant at Arpit Cold Storage, Lucknow.

7. Solar Oorja

A Noida-based, MNRE-empanelled EPC approved by UPNEDA and listed on the PM Surya Ghar portal, executing in-house (no subcontractors) for residential and commercial/industrial rooftops across Noida and Greater Noida.

8. Sun Wave Technologies — the North-India specialist for mid-size C&I

Sun Wave is a Faridabad-headquartered EPC whose service footprint spans the North India belt including western UP's industrial corridors — Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad — with the same CAPEX and RESCO/OPEX structures. It builds commercial and industrial rooftop plants typically from 100 kW to a few MW, handling structural assessment, design, ALMM-compliant procurement, discom liaison through net-metering approval, and post-commissioning O&M with one accountable team. Like every firm above, it is smaller than the national names — the trade is senior attention on mid-size plants and single-point responsibility rather than an account-management layer.

Comparison at a glance

How to choose between them

UP's fragmented discom map makes one factor decisive: proven net-metering approvals in your discom — PVVNL, NPCL, KESCO/UPPCL Kanpur or Lucknow circles — not "UP experience" in general. Then compare structural design for your roof type, ALMM-listed module supply, and O&M commitments with generation reporting. For larger loads, check whether open access actually pencils for your connection: UP's framework is narrower than Haryana's or Rajasthan's, and our state open-access comparison shows where UP sits. Our industrial solar UP guide and UPPCL net-metering guide cover the regulatory detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which are the top solar companies in Uttar Pradesh?

National players with strong UP presence include Tata Power Solar, Amplus, Fourth Partner and CleanMax; UP-based specialists include Teravolt Solar (Kanpur), Bankey Bihari Renewable Energy (Agra) and Solar Oorja (Noida). Sun Wave Technologies serves the western UP industrial belt from its Faridabad base. No official ranking exists — verify discom-specific references before shortlisting.

Is net metering available for industries in UP?

Yes, under UPERC's rooftop framework — with net billing treatment and capacity caps that vary by discom and consumer category. Our UPPCL industrial guide and NPCL Greater Noida guide document the current caps and process.

How much does industrial solar cost in UP?

Turnkey C&I systems typically price around ₹35–45 per watt in 2026, in line with our national 1 MW cost breakdown. A 500 kW plant lands roughly ₹1.75–2.25 crore before financing effects; with 40% accelerated depreciation, post-tax payback of three to five years is realistic at UP commercial tariffs.

Does Sun Wave execute projects in Uttar Pradesh?

Yes. Sun Wave serves western UP's industrial corridors — Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad — from its Faridabad base, alongside its core Haryana–Delhi–Rajasthan–Uttarakhand footprint, in CAPEX or RESCO/OPEX structures.

CAPEX or RESCO for a UP factory?

CAPEX suits profitable companies that can deploy capital and claim 40% accelerated depreciation; RESCO/OPEX suits businesses preferring zero investment with power bought below grid tariff. Our model comparison guide walks through the full decision.
