Varahee Solar Solutions Private Limited, Hyderabad

We are based over in Jawaharnagar, not too far from the Life Spring Hospital in the Moulali area of Hyderabad. Varahee Solar Solutions isn't a giant company with a glass building; we operate out of a regular house, number 42-933. It feels more like a home than an office most days. We have solar panels and frames leaning against the walls and boxes of inverters sitting in the hallway. Being in the solar business in a place as sunny as Hyderabad makes sense, though the heat can be tough when we are out on rooftops. Our crew is small and we’ve known each other for a long time. We spend a lot of our day talking to people about how they can use the sun to power their homes. It’s practical work that involves a lot of climbing and heavy lifting. The neighborhood is mostly residential, so it’s relatively quiet compared to the city center. We don't have any big sales pitches or fancy brochures. Usually, neighbors just see us working and come over to ask questions. We try to keep things simple and explain how the gear works in plain English. There’s always someone in the kitchen making coffee or tea for the team. It’s a relaxed atmosphere, but we get the jobs done. We’ve been at this for a while now and just enjoy the steady pace of things here. It is just a few of us trying to do some honest work every day and we are happy with that.
