    In case of rooftop solar, a cosumer cannot sell his/her electricity generated from his residential rooftop solar to any party other than the local electricity distribution company and make profits. Rooftop solar systems are usually designed not to earn money but to reduce monthly electricity bills. Under the net-metering arrangement under the PM Surya Ghar the surplus energy is taken your power company and they also compensate it accordingly. However, in commercial projects, solar project developers earn money from solar projectsBut usually to make money and profits from solar plants, you need to invest more and go through other formalities.

    The delay could be primarily at two end-one at the solar vendor end and other at the discom-level end. As per consumers’ feedback, sometimes solar vendors delay the installation of the project due to lack of manpower or availability of raw materials while several times discoms delay the process in inspection of the rooftop system post installation, installation of net-meters, testing of meters and final commissioning of the project. However, several state electricity regulators are now issuing directives to streamline the process.
