Quick check

Is solar right for your society?

A high common-area bill

Lifts, pumps and lighting run every day. The higher the common bill, the faster solar pays back for every member.

Usable terrace space

Terraces across blocks can be combined. We map tanks, solar heaters and access paths to find the usable area.

Committee approval

Solar on common property needs a resolution. We give your committee a clear, numbers-first proposal to vote on.

System types

On-grid, hybrid or off-grid: which fits?

Most common

On-grid

Connected to the DISCOM grid through a net meter. Extra daytime units are exported and credited against your bill. No batteries, so the lowest cost per unit.

Best for: Most homes with reliable grid supply. The only type that qualifies for the PM Surya Ghar subsidy.

Hybrid

Grid-connected like on-grid, plus a battery bank that keeps essential loads running during power cuts.

Best for: Areas with frequent outages where backup for fans, lights, Wi-Fi and a fridge matters.

FAQ

Housing Societies: your questions.

All FAQs
How much subsidy can a society get?

Under PM Surya Ghar, group housing societies and RWAs can get ₹18,000 per kW for common facilities, including EV charging, up to 500 kW (calculated at up to 3 kW per house). Verify current terms on the national portal before applying.

Who owns the system and the savings?

The society owns it as common property, and savings reduce the common-area electricity bill, which usually shows up as lower maintenance charges or a larger sinking fund.

Will panels block terrace use?

We design elevated structures where needed so the terrace stays usable, and keep access to tanks and lift rooms clear.
