About SolarMaxx
Built in Rajasthan. Trusted Across India.
18+ years building solar power plants for factories and businesses. Founded with a simple goal: helping industries generate their own power. Still led by the same founder today.
Our Story
Founded in 2008
SolarMaxx was founded in 2008 by Saurabh Bhandari, returning from Switzerland with a commitment to combat climate change through renewable energy. At the time, commercial solar in India was an engineering experiment, not an industry.
We started by distributing solar lamps in rural India. Within a few years we were installing rooftop systems for factories, schools, and religious institutions across Rajasthan. Today SolarMaxx is known for engineering precision and long-term performance in commercial and industrial solar projects.
We were the first company in Rajasthan to receive approval from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE). The first to introduce evacuated tube collector (ETC) solar water heating systems in Rajasthan. From those early projects to today's commercial and industrial solar engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) business, SolarMaxx combines in-house engineering with Grade A components sourced from leading global manufacturers, backed by manufacturer warranties and a 25-year performance guarantee on every plant we commission.

Why Scale Matters
Long-Term Support
Your solar plant has a 25-year life. The company that builds it needs to outlast the warranty. Many will not.
Warranty Support
A performance warranty is only as good as the company behind it. Continuous operations mean we will still be here for the full life of your plant, not just through commissioning day.
Cross-Site Experience
Experience builds better decisions. We have worked with every roof type, utility approval delays, and structural challenges, so your project benefits from proven engineering decisions instead of first-time guesses.
Financial Stability
A company with an established operating history that you can independently verify. Not simply a website with a small team behind it. Financial stability that outlasts a plant warranty cycle.
Leadership
Saurabh Bhandari
Founder, SolarMaxx
Saurabh founded SolarMaxx to bring engineered renewable energy to commercial and industrial buyers across North India. The company started with rural solar distribution and grew into a full EPC practice with in-house engineering and Grade A components sourced from leading global manufacturers.
Today SolarMaxx focuses on factories, warehouses, and commercial facilities, with one accountable team from site survey and feasibility through commissioning and long-term operations and maintenance.
