As per the government rule in PM Surya Ghar Yojana beneficiaries will get 60% subsidy for up to 2 KW solar system in India. So, if you want to install 2 Kilowatt solar panel on your rooftop then you will get Rs. 60,000 as per today's (February, 2025) benchmark cost.
Daily Energy Production: Under 5 hours of peak sunlight, an 800W system generates ~4 kWh daily – enough to power refrigerators, LED lighting, and small appliances. Cost Efficiency: Reduces electricity bills by 40-60% for average households when paired with battery storage.
For 1kW of solar power, you typically need 3 to 4 solar panels, each rated between 250 to 330 watts. The exact number depends on the panel's efficiency and sunlight availability.
