    • 2400 units x 12 months = 28,800 units/year.

  • There is a 5 years warranty for the complete system and 25 years for the solar panel.

  • Solar net metering applies only to hybrid and on-grid solar system.

  • There is up to 40% subsidy on solar for hybrid & on-grid solar systems. No subsidy is available for off-grid solar systems.

You will get the delivery within 10 days from the date of order & installation within 10 days from the date of delivery.

Subsidy on Solar System

Investing in a solar system is a big deal in itself. Many people want to install a solar system but they are not able to do so because of its high initial cost. Therefore, the central government has launched the MNRE subsidy on solar scheme to promote green energy and to help people across India.

People all over India can now get solar systems installed anywhere by taking advantage of government subsidies. The subsidy rates are mentioned below:

 

Please note: 

  • If you install a solar system with a capacity greater than 10kW, you will not be eligible for a solar subsidy.
  • These subsidy rates may vary according to your state solar policy and your location.

Expert Advice

“A 20kW solar system is a high-power-generation solar system that is generally recommended for commercial use. If you want to install this solar system for your commercial project then you should install an on-grid solar system. Because it is often seen that high electricity cost remains a major issue in commercial sectors and on-grid solar systems are specifically designed to reduce the electricity costs.

Apart from this, if you want power backup then you can install an off grid solar system or hybrid solar system. But their initial cost is high as compared to an on-grid solar system.”
