GK Energy has successfully installed 7,620 off-grid solar pumps in Maharashtra, accounting for around 17% of the total 45,911 solar pumps installed under the Guinness World Record achieved by the Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company (MSEDCL). These installations were completed within an intensive 30-day execution window from October 27, 2025, to November 25, 2025, underscoring GK Energy’s scale, execution capability, and operational excellence.
In addition to execution, GK Energy acted as the Strategic Advisor to MSEDCL, playing a critical role in enabling and coordinating the end-to-end execution of this record-breaking initiative for MSEDCL. The role of GK Energy in the project encompassed concept development, strategy development, planning, co-ordination, documentation, framework design and stakeholder management to ensure successful accomplishment.
The installations were carried out under the Magel Tyala Saur Krushi Pump Yojana, a flagship Government of Maharashtra programme aimed at promoting off-grid solar-powered irrigation systems. The initiative is expected to strengthen Maharashtra’s solar irrigation ecosystem by reducing dependence on grid electricity and diesel, lowering energy costs for farmers, and enabling reliable daytime irrigation.
GK Energy and its subsidiary are primarily into the business of design, manufacture, supply, transport, installation, testing and commissioning of decentralized solar systems primarily focused on Solar Photovoltaic Water Pumping Systems popularly known as Solar Agricultural Pumps and other ancillary Services.
