Lotus Energy, the first solar company in Nepal, was founded by James "Jeevan" Goff in 1993. Since then Lotus has provided over 40,000 solar energy systems continuing Nepal-registered and staffed with US operation and technical direction.
Specializing in solar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems Lotus Energy provides off-grid and solar backup power to homes,
offices, and buildings to overcome load-shedding. Their solar-powered specialties include custom designed solar systems for water pumping in rural
communities, solar-powered vaccination fridges for remote hospitals, public solar-powered ozone water
purification systems, and solar-powered electric fencing.

Solar Battery Back-up Systems
- Solar Battery Back-up will help in utilizing a renewable source of energy (solar energy) to fulfill your clean energy goals by providing very reliable and clean power.
- Here you see a 20.88 kW Lotus Energy Array installation at the Community Eye Hospital, Hetauda.
- Introduction of such solar-battery storage projects means a lot in terms of offering low-cost quality health services for local residents.
- Not only will this reduce the hospital’s electric bill significantly, but it will also allow the hospital to function normally and continue operations during power outages.
- This also gives a push to the private sector involvement in strengthening energy security solutions in the long term and focusing on the highest quality components such as SunPower USA solar panels, Trojan USA deep cycle solar batteries, and Schneider electronics.
- This project will help in utilizing a renewable source of energy (solar energy) to fulfill the sustainable clean energy goals of Himalayan Cataract Project by providing a very reliable and clean power source to the Community Eye Hospital.
Solar PV Pump Systems
- Solar PV Pumping system provide clean water for villages in remote locations.
- Depending on location, Government subsidy may be available, for qualifying communities.
Ozone Water Purification Systems
- Lotus Energy’s SPOWTS (Solar Powered Ozone Water Treatment System) Project team. This photo was taken just before dispatching the system to one of the installation site in Mustang District (Lomanthang and Chukksang).
- Health care centers and providers are using our Solar Ozone technology to improve their quality of healthcare, prevent infection and water-born diseases for tourists and local residents and to educate local communities about sanitation and water safety.
- SPOWTS station’s installed by Lotus Energy have not only been helping to provide proper health care in many remote locations, they have also been an income generation source for local communities.
- These SPOWTS stations have been installed by Lotus Energy all along the major trekking routes and have a huge impact on the local environment.
- More than 80,000 trekkers every year can stop using plastic disposable water bottles (which heavily litter the scenic trekking routes) by simply refilling purified water from these stations in a single reusable bottle.
Solar Vaccine Refrigeration Systems
- Newly designed cooling system allows the compressor to operate in cloudy weather
- Will run on a single 140 watt module in most locations
- Heavily insulated to minimize night time warming
- Rugged construction typically provides over 25 years of service
- Rustproof cabinet and hardware, all copper cooling system prevents corrosion
- Simple to install
- Evaporator is unexposed – cannot be punctured during defrosting
- Condenser is easy to clean and minimally affected by dust and cobwebs
Solar Electric Fencing
- Lotus supplied Solar Electric Fencing System to NTNC/ USAID/ Hario Ban Program in Kanchanpur and Gorkha District and other facilities in Nepal.
- Solar electric fencing system is useful to pretect humans and wild animals, including elephant, rhinos, bears, around National Parks; and to protect crops from animals.
Other Solar Products
- Sundaya 3 Light Kit
- Small Solar Power System
- Trojan Battery
- OutBack Inverter
- OutBack MPPT Charge Controller

Founderlotus solar
Lotus Solar designs and installs solar energy systems for both residential and commercial customers to help reduce or eliminate their electric bills by using clean solar photovoltaic energy. We are a close-knit team of installers, energy consultants, customer care specialists, and engineering staff.
We offer a broad range of solar solutions, not just the easy stuff; read more at Product Selection. Whether you need a traditional rooftop grid-tied system, or one of several ground-mounted arrays, or an automatic tracker which follows the sun from dawn to dusk, or a battery back-up or complete off-grid system, we can build a system that you will really love.
Lotus Solar has been installing solar since 1993. With a strong focus on quality work and with thousands of satisfied clients, it’s no surprise that we are also the only SunPower dealer in Upstate NY with Elite status. This recognizes our higher standards, training, and accountability and also gives us certain pricing advantages which we, in turn, pass along to our customers.
We warranty our work for ten full years, which is twice the length required by the State of New York. (And, all of our SunPower products carry a complete 25-year warranty.) We are NYSERDA partners (so that you get the full amount of the NY State solar rebate you are due). We are well-staffed with NABCEP (the gold standard for solar certification) installers, two of whom are even NABCEP instructors. You can rest assured that our systems are designed and built for your peace of mind.
SunPower is the manufacturer of the highest quality solar systems in the world. See The SunPower Advantage . An American company founded in San Jose, California in 1985, they are still here, helping people to change the way our world is powered. Their unique technology delivers the most efficient solar panels on Earth, perfect for getting the most energy production from your roof so that you can offset up to 100% of your electric bill.
The SunPower warranty is also the best. While competitors brag about panels being warrantied for 25 years, their fine print has lots of loopholes. Their actual product warranties are usually only 10 years, and any shipping or remove/install labor (usually more expensive than the “free” panel) is not covered at all. Only SunPower does that… and for a full 25 years.
