“Our customers not only have unique requirements at the site in terms of solar installation, but they also have unique requirements in terms of cash flows or preferences based on their balance sheets. As a result, we maintain relationships with
various financial investors and lenders in the market to offer not only the conventional capex model where the solar system is sold to the offtaker/ customer, but also the OPEX model where the offtaker only purchases power by entering into a power purchase agreement, and an EMI model where the offtaker prefers to purchase the system with financial assistance,” Pritam continues.

It constantly explores new technologies to enhance customer value in terms of the performance of the solar system and lowering of investment.

Every project faces unique challenges and Quark overcomes those by keeping its stakeholders constantly apprised.
