The Bharat Diamond Bourse (BDB) at Bandra Kurla Complex is one of the largest commercial complexes in India and was once the largest diamond trading hub in the world. Spread across 20 acres with multiple interconnected towers and 24×7 global connectivity, BDB operates as one of the most secure and operationally sensitive trade centres in the country.
Tech Solar was entrusted with designing, engineering, and executing a 1.3 MW rooftop solar power system across four prime towers — C, D, E, and F — while ensuring zero disruption to the daily business of thousands of diamond merchants.
This project has become a benchmark for solar deployment on complex high-security commercial structures, demonstrating what is achievable when precision engineering meets large-scale commercial sustainability.
After witnessing the reliability and output from the first two towers, BDB management awarded Tech Solar the remaining towers — making it a full 1.3 MW multi-tower deployment.

With no RCC slab available, Tech Solar designed a bespoke galvanised steel superstructure spanning over 72,000 sq. ft., elevated at 5.8 metres and capable of supporting approximately 3,045 solar modules (each ~30 kg). The structure was engineered to withstand heavy wind loads, high corrosion near the Mithi River, long-term thermal movement, and comply with airport height restrictions.
Key Aspects: 150+ Tons Steel | 5.8M Elevation | Wind Load Rated | Airport Compliant | Corrosion Resistant
To maximise yield across uneven roof geometry and varying shadow conditions, multi-MPPT solar inverters were installed, enabling optimised power tracking across all towers. Both AC and DC sides were protected with double-tier fuse protection ensuring system safety and operational longevity.
Key Aspects: Multi-MPPT Inverters | Dual Protection Layers | Maximum Yield Optimisation
Our engineering team designed a cable management route that navigated inverted beams, service shafts, high-security access pathways, and 24×7 operational floors. The entire power distribution was integrated seamlessly into the BDB electrical architecture without disrupting any floor operations or fiber-optic infrastructure.
Key Aspects: Zero Floor Disruption | Fiber Network Protected | Seamless Integration
To maintain high generation levels year-round, a complete water management system was installed — including water storage tanks, multiple wash points across towers, pressure-optimised motor systems, and individual valve-controlled distribution networks. This ensures efficient cleaning of all 3,045 modules.
Key Aspects: 3,045 Modules Covered | Pressure-Optimised Motors | Individual Valve Control
Work was executed only during non-office hours, under noise-controlled protocols, with dedicated supervision from Tech Solar engineers, and daily compliance approvals from BDB management. This allowed BDB to continue operating uninterrupted at global trading standards throughout the entire installation.
Key Aspects: Non-Office Hours Only | Daily Compliance Approvals | Background-Verified Teams
