Common-area solar for lifts, pumps, lighting and club house
Load study of common-area consumption from society billsCommittee-ready proposal with ROI, share model and maintenance planSingle or multiple rooftop arrays with dedicated net meters
Solar for the society, not just individual flats
Common-area loads — lifts, water pumps, corridor and compound lighting, club house — are typically 30–40% of a society’s electricity bill and attract commercial tariff slabs. A rooftop plant that offsets these units improves the society’s finances without touching individual flat connections.
How the numbers work
A 20 kW society system in Pune generates roughly 2,400 units a month, offsetting the lift and pump consumption at ₹9–₹11 per unit. The society saves ₹2.5–₹3 lakh a year, and the system pays back in 4 to 5 years even without residential subsidy.
Governance and paperwork
We provide the AGM resolution draft, the technical proposal for the committee, DISCOM documentation in the society’s name, and a maintenance calendar that keeps generation transparent — a quarterly report you can read out in the next AGM.

Solar for Housing Societies & RWAs FAQs
How much subsidy do I get on rooftop solar in Maharashtra?
Under PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, residential consumers get ₹30,000 per kW up to 2 kW and ₹78,000 in total for 3 kW and above. The amount is credited directly to your bank account after installation and net-metering are completed.
How many units does a 3 kW solar system generate per month?
In Maharashtra a well-designed 3 kW rooftop system generates roughly 340–380 units per month across the year, higher in March–April and lower during the monsoon. That typically offsets most or all of a 2–3 BHK household’s consumption.
How long does installation take after I confirm?
Structural work and installation usually take 7–14 days for residential systems once material reaches your site. Net-metering approval and meter installation by MSEDCL typically add 3–6 weeks depending on the circle office workload.
Do you help with the PM Surya Ghar subsidy application?
Yes. We register your application on the national portal with your consumer number, follow up the feasibility approval with your DISCOM, submit the commissioning certificate and track the subsidy until it is credited to your bank account.
What is the difference between on-grid and hybrid solar?
An on-grid system exports surplus power and shuts down during a grid outage for safety. A hybrid system adds a battery bank so you keep running essential loads during outages while still enjoying net-metering credit for exported units.
Can I get a solar loan or EMI?
Yes. We prepare the project report and documentation for solar loans from SBI, Bank of Baroda, HDFC and NBFCs. A 3 kW system works out to roughly ₹2,450 per month over 60 months, which is usually less than the bill it replaces.
