Luminous Power Technologies today announced a strategic partnership with IDBI Bank, to provide EMI (equated monthly installment) option to its consumers seeking solar power solutions for residences and small commercial establishments.
Having seen the surge in demand for residential rooftops in past few years, Luminous launched solarbyluminous.com™ in Delhi & NCR in March this year and will be followed up by a country-wide launch in the next few months. Post-tie-up with IDBI Bank, the consumer will have to make a nominal initial down payment and the rest will be broken up into EMIs enabling consumers to buy solar power solutions as they do other domestic gadgets.
Commenting on the partnership, Mr. Vipul Sabharwal, Managing Director, Luminous Power Technologies, said, “With solarbyluminous.com™Luminous has now ventured into providing end to end Solar Solutions for residential and small commercial establishments. solarbyluminous.com promises a one-stop solution for the consumer starting with the right design which works for their specific needs to quality workmanship in solar installations along with top of the line solar products. By partnering with IDBI, Luminous aims to expand the residential solar market by lowering the upfront investment, the savings from the solar plant can potentially themselves pay for the EMIs.”
Electricity prices are rising and eat away a significant share of the household budget. Given the fact that big electricity consuming appliances like ACs have become an integral part of everyday lives, installing a solar power system presents an ideal solution by reducing the expenditure on electricity dramatically allowing consumers to save money for other personal use. In addition, since solar energy is a renewable and environment-friendly source of energy, it also makes good sense to include it as part of the sustainability endeavor.
Speaking on the tie-up, Mr. S. G Nadkarni, Executive Director, IDBI Bank, said, “We are extremely happy to tie-up with Luminous. We have developed simple and hassle-free policies for the customer seeking solar solutions with the nominal processing fee. With this partnership, we aim to empower consumers by giving them the financial support to make solar power as a viable alternative to conventional power sources.”
