Everything You Need to Know About Going Solar

From how panels work to government subsidies, net metering and FAQs — all in one place.

Step by Step

How Does Solar Power Actually Work?

Think of your solar system like a mini power plant on your roof — one that runs on sunlight and never charges you a fuel bill.

1
☀️

Sunlight hits the panels

Solar panels absorb sunlight. Mumbai gets 5–6 sunny hours a day — one of India's best.

2

Panels create DC electricity

Panels produce "direct current" (DC) electricity that flows to your inverter.

3
🔄

Inverter converts to AC

The inverter converts DC into "alternating current" (AC) — what your home appliances use.

4
🏠

Powers your home

AC power flows to your switchboard and powers everything — exactly like grid electricity.

🌊

Solar panel = Water tank on your terrace

Just like a terrace tank reduces reliance on municipal supply, your solar panels reduce reliance on the electricity board.

📱

Net metering = Phone recharge plan

Surplus solar exported to the grid is like a recharge credit — used later when you draw from the grid at night.

🏦

Solar investment = Fixed deposit

Pay once upfront. Then for 25 years the system earns you savings every month — like an FD with monthly returns.

🛒

Buying solar = Buying your own electricity shop

Instead of buying electricity at ₹9–11/unit forever, you own a system that makes electricity at ₹0/unit for 25 years.

Which System is Right for You?

3 Types of Solar Systems

All three use the same solar panels — what differs is what happens to the electricity and how your home handles outages.

🔌

Grid-Tied System

Most popular · No battery

  • Connected to MSEDCL/Adani grid
  • Earns net metering credits
  • Lowest cost — no batteries needed
  • Eligible for all subsidies
✓ Subsidy eligible

Best for: Apartments, homes & offices with stable grid

🔋

Hybrid System

Grid + Battery backup

  • Stores excess solar in lithium battery
  • Powers home during load shedding
  • Also earns net metering credits
  • Battery lasts 10–15 years
⚡ With backup power

Best for: Areas with frequent load shedding

🏕️

Off-Grid System

Fully independent

  • Completely independent of the grid
  • No electricity bill — ever
  • Requires large battery bank
  • No net metering available
🏕 Fully independent

Best for: Farmhouses, remote locations

👍 Our recommendation:

Start with a Grid-Tied system — most cost-effective, fully subsidy-eligible, covers 80–100% of your bill. Add a battery only if you need backup power during load shedding.

Government Policies 2025

Subsidies & Government Support

Residential customers can get up to ₹88,000 off their installation cost — before savings even begin.

🏛 PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana

India's biggest residential solar scheme. Direct cash subsidies for homeowners installing rooftop solar up to 3 kW.

Up to ₹78,000
Central government direct benefit transfer

🟡 Maharashtra State Subsidy

Maharashtra government offers an additional flat subsidy on top of the central scheme.

Your Biggest Financial Tool

What is Net Metering?

Net metering lets you "sell" surplus solar electricity back to the grid and offset it against what you draw at night — making bills drop to near zero.

Real example: A family in Andheri with a 5 kW system generates ~600 units/month. They use 350 at home and export 250. At night they import 150 from the grid. Bill = 150 – 250 = ₹0 + 100 units credit carried forward.
Why Go Solar

The Real Benefits of Solar

Beyond saving money — solar has a ripple effect on your finances, property value, and the environment.

💰

Massive bill savings

Most Mumbai homeowners reduce electricity bills by 70–100%. A 3 kW system saves ₹25,000–₹35,000 per year.

₹3–4 lakh over 10 years
📈

Excellent ROI

Payback in 4–6 years in Mumbai, then free energy for 20+ more years — a 15–20% annual return.

4–6 year payback
🏠

Increases property value

Solar-equipped homes sell faster and at a premium. It's listed as an asset when selling or renting.

+5–10% property value
🔒

Protection from tariff hikes

MSEDCL tariffs rise 5–8% every year. Once you go solar, you're insulated — your fuel is free sunlight.

₹0 fuel cost for 25 years
🌿

Environmental impact

A 5 kW system offsets ~4–5 tonnes of CO₂ per year — equivalent to planting 200 trees annually.

~100T CO₂ over 25 years

Energy independence

With a hybrid system, load shedding becomes a non-issue. Your essentials keep running when the grid goes down.

No more power cuts (hybrid)
Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Real questions from Mumbai homeowners — answered simply.

Does solar work during monsoon / cloudy days?
Yes — panels generate electricity even on cloudy days at 20–50% efficiency. Mumbai's monsoon (June–September) reduces generation, but the remaining 8 months more than compensate. Systems are sized to account for seasonal variation.
Do I need to own the flat to install solar?
For individual rooftop systems, yes — you need to own the terrace or have written permission from the housing society. Many Mumbai societies are installing shared systems where cost and savings are distributed among all residents. We can guide societies through this process.
How much rooftop space do I need?
Roughly 100 sq ft per kW. A 3 kW system needs ~300 sq ft of shadow-free rooftop. The roof should ideally face south or west with no major shading between 9am–4pm.
What maintenance does solar need?
Very little. Panels benefit from a wash every 2–3 months in Mumbai's air. The inverter should be checked annually. We offer AMC at ₹3,500/year covering two professional visits, cleaning and inspection.
How long does installation take?
The physical installation takes 1–2 days for most residential systems. The net metering paperwork (MSEDCL/Adani approval) takes 30–90 days — we handle all of this on your behalf.
What if my solar produces more than I consume?
Excess units are exported to the grid and credited on your bill at the net metering rate (currently ₹2–3.50/unit in Maharashtra). Credits roll forward month to month and are settled at year-end. You never lose surplus you generate.
Can I get a loan or EMI for solar?
Yes. SBI, Bank of Baroda, Canara Bank and private lenders offer solar loans at 7–10% under PM Surya Ghar. Many offer zero-cost EMI for 3–5 years. In many cases your monthly EMI is LESS than what you currently pay for electricity.
Plain English Definitions

Solar Glossary

Words you'll hear when buying solar — explained without jargon.

kW (Kilowatt)
The "size" of a solar system. A 3 kW system has 3,000 watts of capacity. Bigger kW = more panels = more electricity generated.
kWh / Unit
The "unit" on your electricity bill. 1 kWh = running a 1,000W appliance for 1 hour. Both solar generation and grid consumption are measured this way.
Inverter
The brain of your solar system. Converts DC power from panels into AC power your home can use.
Net Metering
The billing arrangement where your electricity board subtracts what you exported from what you imported — you pay only the difference.
Monocrystalline Panel
The premium, high-efficiency type of solar panel (black). More efficient per sq ft. What we recommend for most Mumbai rooftops.
Peak Sun Hours
Hours per day when sunlight is strong enough for optimal generation. Mumbai averages 4.5–5 peak sun hours — one of India's best.
Payback Period
How many years it takes for savings to fully recover your upfront investment. For Mumbai rooftop solar, typically 4–6 years. After that, free energy.
PM Surya Ghar
India's biggest residential solar subsidy scheme — up to ₹78,000 central + ₹10,000 Maharashtra state subsidy for eligible homeowners.
