Shut down your diesel generator. For good.
Your DG set runs at ₹18–22/unit. Infozeb BESS + solar runs at ₹2–3/unit. For a 60 kW load, that is ₹15–20 lakh saved every year — and under 4 years to payback.
60 kW factory load · 8 h/day · diesel saved
Just on diesel. Before adding maintenance, AMC, and CPCB CEMS instrumentation.
Your 60 kW DG set costs you ₹16.8 lakh every year. Just on fuel.
And that is before you count maintenance, oil changes, the ₹2–4 lakh CPCB CEMS instrumentation now mandatory for any DG above 62.5 kVA, and the reputational cost of fumes and noise.
| Cost line · 60 kW load · 8 h/day | Diesel generator | Infozeb BESS + 80 kWp solar |
|---|---|---|
| Fuel (₹100/L × 17,520 L/year) | ₹17.5 lakh / year | ₹0 |
| Maintenance + oil + AMC | ₹1.2 lakh / year | ₹35,000 / year |
| CPCB CEMS instrumentation (one-time + reporting) | ₹2–4 lakh + audit | — |
| Effective cost per unit (₹/kWh) | ₹18–22 | ₹2–3 |
| 5-year total cost | ₹95 lakh + | ₹10–14 lakh |
Numbers assume diesel at ₹100/L, 8 hours/day operation, and a typical Indian MSME load profile. Your actual savings depend on tariff, daylight hours, and load pattern — use the calculator for a site-specific number.
Every DG above 62.5 kVA needs Continuous Emission Monitoring.
Add ₹2–4 lakh for instrumentation, plus ongoing third-party reporting and audits. Or skip the requirement entirely by replacing the DG with a BESS. State boards (HSPCB, MPCB, GPCB, TNPCB) are inspecting now.

Compliance burden eliminated
Which Infozeb model replaces which DG?
Map your DG kVA to an Infozeb BESS. Most factories keep a smaller standby DG for multi-hour outages; the BESS handles 95% of everyday load.
