Housing.com ties up with solartech start-up Loom Solar for solar rooftop solutions

New Delhi, January 24, 2022: Proptech company Housing.com launches Solar Rooftop – a one stop solar rooftop solution for homes under its rental and allied services platform Housing Edge. Housing.com has entered into a partnership with Loom Solar, a SolarTech start-up.

The partnership aims at leveraging and augmenting the strength of both organisations for providing a one-stop solution to home owners for their solar needs.

According to Mercom India Research’s latest report, in Q3 2021, in 9M(9 months, 2021), India added 1.3 GW of rooftop solar, an increase of 202% compared to the same period last year. Gujarat had the most rooftop installations in Q3 2021, followed by Maharashtra and Haryana.

“At Housing.com, we continuously aim to create new offerings to add greater value to our customers. This tie-up with Loom Solar is another step in that direction. Rooftop solar is one of the crucial elements in creating sustainable living solutions and we are confident that demand for this will continue to rise exponentially in the near future,” said Dhruv Agarwala, Group CEO, Housing.com, Makaan.com & PropTiger.com.

Amod Anand, Co-Founder & Director, Loom Solar said, “We as a nation are moving towards ‘Atma Nirbhar Bharat’ and this journey begins right from our homes. Loom Solar recently crossed 50,000 homes adopting rooftop solar systems and this tie-up with Housing.com takes another footstep towards addressing the bigger mission. We look forward to strengthening the overall purpose of reaching the households with such a partnership and to take our mission, ‘Apna Ghar, Apni Bijli’ to newer heights.”

To increase the outreach of Solar Rooftop solutions, in addition to this partnership, Housing.com has also tie-ups with 3 more companies for providing solar rooftop solutions including Home Scape, My Sun & Solar Square.

“While going solar is a great way to contribute towards a greener planet, a housing society or even an independent house can effectively cut a sizable chunk of their energy bills and also boost their overall property value,” said Snehil Gautam, Group CMO, Housing.com, Makaan.com & PropTiger.com.
