“It aims at mobilizing public and private capital to scale up their businesses by expanding access to distributed clean energy projects. The awardees have requested grant support for various project preparatory activities including legal, technical, and financial advisory,” ZunRoof said in a statement.
Recently in April, ZunRoof received a pre-series A funding of $1.2 million from home appliances and consumer goods conglomerate Godrej. Along with Godrej, existing investors Ramakant Sharma, founder of Livspace; Gaurav Gupta, Asia director of Dalberg Advisors; and Ajith Pai of Paipal Ventures also participated in that funding round.
So far, Zunroof has designed solar rooftops for over 10,000 residential houses and is aiming to go past Rs 1000 Cr in ARR over the next 3 years.
In March this year, the government earmarked a fund of Rs 11,814 Cr to propel Phase-II of the grid-connected rooftop solar programme. The government is targetting 40 GW of rooftop solar energy by the year 2022. As per data on the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy website, a total of 1.2 GW capacity grid connected rooftop solar PV systems have been reported installed in the country as on January 31, 2019.
