Our milestones

From a Leap to Building a Legacy

Founder’s Vision

Kuldeep Jain, a former McKinsey partner, driven by a desire to create real-world impact, marks the beginning of CleanMax with a clear mission: to help businesses adopt clean energy without compromising performance.

Building the First Brick

With no solar background but a sharp eye for market barriers, Kuldeep launched CleanMax’s first 100 kW rooftop project. His insight into upfront costs was holding businesses back, leading CleanMax to flip the model, fund the infrastructure, and have clients pay only for the energy they used.

Scaling with Belief

Powered by Kuldeep's personal savings, revenue recycling, and sheer grit, CleanMax grew to become India’s rooftop solar leader.

Thinking Bigger and Bolder

With the rooftop model proven, Kuldeep bets on open-access solar and wind, long-term, high-capex ventures. This was a strategic pivot into utility-scale operations, still grounded in client-centricity and OPEX thinking.

Going Global

As CleanMax gained multinational clients, Kuldeep expanded to the UAE and Thailand. Bringing the precision-engineered, client-centric approach to international markets.

Innovating Ahead of the Curve

Kuldeep introduced a carbon vertical, diversifying CleanMax into hybrid energy. The company is now prepared for deeper decarbonisation trends.

Leading with Legacy

With a 2.5 GW portfolio and Fortune 500 companies as clients, CleanMax continues to shape India Inc.'s energy transition. With the same mission, Kuldeep envisioned solving real problems with humility, vision, and lasting impact.

Leadership
"Coming from a background far from solar, I relied on curiosity, grit, and a drive to tackle real-world problems. Every early challenge shaped my vision, leading to CleanMax, a company built to make clean energy simple, effective, and impactful for businesses."
