Semi-arid climate
About 34 rainy days a year leaves panels dry and dusty for most of it.
From Sanand’s car plants to the warehouse belts of Changodar and Aslali, Ahmedabad has acres of solar on its roofs. Keep it clean without water, with cleaners built just down the expressway in Vadodara.

Ahmedabad’s industry spans textiles, chemicals, pharma, engineering and automobiles. Sanand GIDC alone covers about 2,056 ha, with Tata Motors, Bosch and MG nearby and pharma, electronics and FMCG makers such as Nestlé and Colgate.
The city also has major warehousing belts at Changodar–Bavla–Bagodara and Aslali: some of the widest, flattest roofs in the state. And Ahmedabad had nearly 70,000 PM Surya Ghar rooftop installations by May 2026, second in Gujarat.
Ahmedabad’s climate is semi-arid, with about 784 mm of rain on roughly 34 days a year. The rest of the time, dust from roads, construction and industry settles on panels with nothing to wash it off.
Factories, warehouses and plants with rooftop solar in these estates and corridors.
About 34 rainy days a year leaves panels dry and dusty for most of it.
Construction, traffic and logistics yards around Changodar and Aslali put a lot of dust in the air.
Estates such as Vatva add fine particles from dyeing and chemical processes.
Large factory sheds and warehouses with long, continuous panel rows suit Solar Glide. The robot travels along the row with a dry rotating brush, charges itself from its own solar panel and runs on a schedule, so nobody has to walk the roof.
Roofs with several smaller arrays, skylights, vents or mixed orientations suit Aqualess Industrial: a 600 mm motorised brush on a 3.3 m rod that one person guides from a safe position.
Both clean dry. For a warehouse with thousands of panels, that is a lot of water not bought.
Our team travels from Vadodara (~110 km) to survey your roof, demonstrate the cleaner on your own panels and set it up. Support continues after handover.
Yes. We supply Solar Glide robots and Aqualess waterless cleaners to plants and warehouses across Ahmedabad, including Sanand, Vatva, Naroda, Changodar and Aslali, with a roof survey, demo, setup and support.
Warehouses usually have long, continuous rows, which is exactly what Solar Glide is built for. It runs on a schedule with no crew on the roof, and charges itself from its own panel.
We are based in Makarpura GIDC, Vadodara, about 110 km away by road. We travel across Gujarat for roof surveys, demos, setup and support. Call or message us to book a visit.
A wet clean typically uses 3–5 litres per panel every wash, according to CEEW, and panels in India usually need cleaning about once a week. Our savings calculator shows the yearly figure for your panel count.
