About Oorja Development Solutions India

Oorja is a Farming-as-a-Service company working at the intersection of sustainable agriculture and renewable energy. Our focus is on powering beneficial appliances that help users generate stable incomes, create jobs, and mitigate carbon emissions. Despite the urgent need, around 90% of marginal farmers cannot afford to invest in solar technology for their farms. Oorja wants to close this gap. We finance, install and maintain decentralised solar energy systems for community use. Oorja sells solar irrigation and milling affordable services on a Pay-Per-Use basis to smallholder farmers, without any upfront cost to them. We also offer offline and digital advisory services to strengthen climate resilience. We operate in rural areas of northern India where farmers are currently reliant on polluting and expensive diesel motors for their energy needs.
