During the recently concluded HYREX 2015 Renewable Energy Expo at Hyderabad, I met the representatives of Land Mark Solar, the suppliers for Solar Petrol Pumps in Telangana & Andhra Pradesh. They also offer other services in the renewable energy segment like EPC, Solar Panel solution for organizations, etc. In this article, let's focus on their Solar Petrol Pump solution.
Petrol pumps are located everywhere - both in rural and urban areas. But they may not get adequate power through the grid always as long power cuts are common in areas outside the big cities. They generally employ diesel generators to compensate for these power cuts, but even for petrol pumps, that can be an expensive proposition on the long run!
Hence it maybe a good idea to install solar panels to power petrol/Diesel pumps.
Following is the summary of the Solar Petrol Pump solution offered by Land Mark Solar. (They provide Solar Panels made by HBL Solar, the large Govt. PSU.)

They told me that they have completed a few solar petrol pump projects in Telangana & AP. So if you are interested to power your petrol/solar pumps through solar energy, and you are located in this region, you might want to consider Land Mark Solar for your project.
