    If you want to apply for residential rooftop solar project and live anywhere in India, you are entitled for a central govt subsidy of Rs 78,000/- if you are planning a project of upto 3kW or more. However, in case your state gives you additional susbsidy, you can get more. For example, a UP resident for a 3kW system can get Rs 78,000/- from MNRE and Rs 30,000/- from UPNEDA (UP govt). So, in total you will get Rs 1,08,000/- for a 3kW system or a system more than 3kW. It is because there is a ceiling for connections after 3kW.

    The Directorate General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) recently recommendated imposing anrti-dumping duty against the improts of Chinese and Vietnamese solar glasses due to their alleged ultra low pries. The Indian solar glass makers were demanding sucgh duties to safeguard their interests. Now with the imposition of anti-dumping duties, the foreing import below a threshold minimum price cannot enter the Indian solar market. This can ensure a level playting field for the Indian solar glass makers who were find it tough to comete with the the ultra low prices of Chinese solar glass makers.

    If you want to undertake rooftop solar business, you need to register with the discom (electricity distribution company) where you want to operate. As per the PM Surya Ghar scheme norms, only the registered solar vendors can undertake residential rooftop solar installations. The consumers can get subsidies for rooftop solar projects under the PM Surya Ghar scheme only if they get their installations done by registered vendors only. The National Rooftop Portal maintains a list of all the registered solar vendors who are undertaking these installations. For getting registered with the local discom, these companies also need to pay annual fees to them to get their registrations done.

    The major advancement in technology is the progression on more efficient solar modules. Earlier India saw polycrystalline modules which had lesser efficiencies. Later major solar module makers started making mono-PERC technology based solar modules which could offer effiiencies of around 21%. Now the country is slowly moving to TOPCon technology which offers efficiencies higher than mono-PERC. Another advancement had been was in bringing more Wp panels. Now India has panels having a maximum Wp power of upto 680Wp. Higher Wp power means that to generate the same amount of solar power we would need lesser number of panels as a single higher power panel can produce enough power.

    To boost the integration of solar power with the Indian grid, the Indian government is promoting on-grid rooftop solar through PM Surya Ghar where special subsidies are given to promote consumers to install rooftop solar. In this system, the surplus (unused) solar power from these systems are injected into the grid. In case of large solar projects, these large amount of solar power are injected into the grid to make the grid more green. Large scale solar projects has also made solar power cheaper than power coming from polluting sources like coal.

    When you opt for a on-grid rooftop solar, your conventional meter is changed with a net-meter. These net-meters allow the transfer of surplus solar power generated from your rooftop solar to the grid. It also allows usage of grid electricity when your household power demand is more than solar power generation. These net meters allows the discoms to finally calculate the net use of grid power or solar power and furnish the monthly power bills acccordingly.
