Nexus Mall
Location – Delhi
Type – Lightweight Flexible Modules
Commissioned – 2025
Overview
In 2025, Nexus Mall Delhi commissioned a 500 kW rooftop solar power plant to strengthen its sustainability journey. The project used 1,000 high-efficiency 500 Wp panels installed on the mall’s dome-structured roof. With an investment of ₹3.4 crore, the system now saves nearly 30,000 units of electricity every month, delivering a rapid ROI of just 4.5 years. The installation has not only reduced operational costs but also reinforced the mall’s commitment to clean energy adoption.
Challenges
The project presented multiple design and engineering hurdles:
- Curved dome roof: Traditional rigid panels could not be mounted easily.
- Aesthetic concerns: As a premium retail hub, the mall’s visual appeal had to remain uncompromised.
- Structural load: Heavy mounting structures risked adding pressure to the dome.
These challenges demanded a solution that balanced performance, aesthetics, and safety.
Solutions
Waaree addressed these issues with its lightweight flexible solar modules, designed specifically for unconventional rooftops.
- Adhesive installation: Eliminated the need for heavy metallic structures.
- Flexibility: Allowed seamless integration with the dome’s curvature.
- Lightweight design: Minimized structural stress and accelerated installation time.
This approach preserved the architectural beauty of the mall, ensured maximum surface utilization, and delivered efficient energy generation.
Conclusion
The Nexus Mall Delhi project proves how Waaree’s flexible modules and EPC solutions can unlock new opportunities for solar adoption on complex rooftops. By overcoming structural and design challenges, the solution delivered:
- 30,000 units of electricity saved per month
- ₹3.4 crore investment with ROI in 4.5 years
- Preservation of dome aesthetics
This success story demonstrates that with the right technology, sustainability and design can go hand in hand—making Waaree a trusted partner for innovative solar solutions
