Frequently Asked Questions

How much can I save with a solar loan?

Depending on your system size and electricity consumption, you can save between ₹50,000 to ₹1,50,000 annually on electricity bills. Most systems pay back within 4-6 years and provide free electricity for 15-25 years thereafter.

What is the subsidy available for solar panels?

The Central Government provides 30% subsidy on solar power systems for residential users under the PM-KUSUM scheme. Some state governments offer additional subsidies. Commercial installations qualify for accelerated depreciation benefits.

How does net metering work?

Net metering allows you to export excess solar power to the grid. Your electricity meter runs both ways - you get credited for excess energy generated and draw from the grid when needed. At the end of the billing cycle, you only pay for the net consumption.

What maintenance is required for solar panels?

Solar panels require minimal maintenance - just occasional cleaning to remove dust and debris. Most quality panels come with 25-year performance warranties. Annual professional cleaning and inspection are recommended for optimal performance.

Can I get a solar loan without collateral?

Yes, many lenders offer collateral-free solar loans up to ₹20 Lakhs based on your credit score and income. The solar panel system itself serves as collateral, and some lenders don't require any additional security.

How long does solar panel installation take?

Residential installations typically take 1-3 days for systems up to 10kW. Commercial installations may take 1-4 weeks depending on system size. Grid connection approval from the local electricity board may take additional 2-4 weeks.
