Frequently Asked Questions
How much solar plant capacity (in kW) do I need?
- A simple and effective rule of thumb is:
Match your solar plant capacity (in kW) with the thousands digit of your average monthly electricity bill in INR.
- For example: If your average electricity bill is ₹5,000 per month, then a 5 kW solar system is ideal for you.
- Your plant capacity should not exceed your sanctioned load (as approved by your electricity provider).
