Tata Power has announced a partnership with Small Industries Bank of India (SIDBI) to provide affordable financing scheme for MSME customers in the rooftop solar segment.
The scheme will empower MSMEs to adopt sustainable energy for their businesses and promote greener tomorrow, said India’s largest integrated power company.

The scheme is for MSME customers of Tata Power for both off-grid and on-grid connections. There is need to innovate and pay attention to these classes of consumers to activate the next leg of growth in rooftop solar market.
