*Kilowatt Peak (kWp) is the unit used to measure the maximum power output a solar panel can produce under Standard Test Conditions (STC) in a laboratory, not actual production.
It's important to note that kWp represents theoretical peak output, not actual production. In real-world operation, the actual power generated can vary significantly due to numerous factors such as: Weather conditions (e.g., cloudy, rainy), Higher panel temperature, Panel orientation and tilt, Partial shading, Panel cleanliness, Time of day.

Solar Cell Installation Project: 6 kW Rice Mill, Ban Mi, Lopburi  

The PUMA SUNERGY team delivers a showcase of solar energy system installations to support agricultural product processing entrepreneurs. In this project, we were trusted to conduct a roof structure assessment and install a 6 kW solar cell system for a "Rice Mill" in Sanam Chaeng, Ban Mi, Lopburi.

For a rice mill business, operating heavy machinery during the daytime—whether it's rice milling machines, conveyor belt motors, dust extractor fans, or sorting machines—all result in very high electricity costs. Utilizing empty roof space to install solar panels is therefore an essential jigsaw piece that helps mill owners cut production costs and sustainably increase profits per kilogram.

100% Fire Prevention: Meeting Rice Mill Needs with Microinverters  

The environment inside a rice mill often has "rice bran dust and husks" floating in the air, which are highly flammable materials. Fire safety is therefore an issue that can absolutely never be compromised. Our engineering team has chosen to design the system with the highest standards:

  • 580W Solar Panels (10 Panels): Achieves a total output of 5.80 kWp, helping instantly draw solar energy to power machinery motors.
  • Inverter Model HM-1500 (3 Units): We choose to utilize Microinverter technology, which converts power from Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC) directly underneath the panels. As a there is no accumulation of high DC voltage on the roof, which decisively eliminates the risk of sparking (Arc Fault) that causes fires, allowing the mill owner to have full confidence in the safety of their property and products.

ติดตั้งโซล่าเซลล์ 6 kW ประหยัดค่าไฟได้เท่าไหร่?  

The 6 kW system for this project can generate an average of approximately 800 units (kWh) of electricity per month for use in the mill, effectively helping ease business cost burdens:

  • Reduce monthly electricity costs: Saves approximately 4,000 THB
  • Reduce annual electricity costs: Saves around 48,000 THB

With this proportion, the payback period will be approximately 3.5 - 4 years. After passing the payback period, this system will continue to generate profit from electricity savings for your mill for over 20 years.
