In recent years, the adoption of solar energy has surged, offering an effective way to generate electricity and significantly reduce utility bills while promoting environmental sustainability.
Government Initiatives for Solar Adoption
The government is actively encouraging the use of solar energy through various subsidies. One such initiative is the PM Surya Ghar Free Electricity Scheme, which provides financial assistance for installing on-grid solar systems ranging from 1 kW to 10 kW. The aim is to enhance renewable energy usage across the nation.
Targeting Solar Installation
Under this scheme, the government plans to install solar panels on the rooftops of 1 crore families. Additionally, the PM Kusum Yojana provides subsidies for solar pumps in agriculture, enabling farmers to install these systems easily and even sell surplus electricity back to the grid.
Cost and Benefits of Solar Systems
The total cost for a 2 kW solar system is approximately Rs 16,500 after a substantial subsidy of around Rs 76,000. This financial support makes solar installation more accessible, allowing households to significantly decrease electricity expenses while potentially generating income from excess power production.
