FAQs
Solar Questions from Kotdwar
What is PM Surya Ghar Yojana?
PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana is a Government of India scheme that provides a central financial subsidy on rooftop solar systems for residential consumers, helping households generate their own electricity and reduce monthly bills.
How much subsidy can I get?
Residential customers can receive up to ₹78,000 depending on system capacity — ₹30,000 per kW for the first 2 kW and ₹18,000 for the third kW. We handle the complete subsidy application and net metering paperwork for you.
How much space is required for rooftop solar?
As a thumb rule you need about 80-100 sq. ft. of shadow-free roof area per kW. A typical 3 kW home system needs roughly 250-300 sq. ft. Our engineers confirm the exact layout during the free site survey.
How long does installation take?
Most residential systems are installed in 2-4 days after material delivery. Including approvals, net metering and inspection, the end-to-end timeline is usually 3-5 weeks.
