FAQ ARCHIVE

Frequently Asked Questions

Common inquiries regarding building load analysis, Discom subsidies, and structural configurations.

What subsidies are available for rooftop solar in Delhi under PM Surya Ghar and the Delhi Solar Policy?
Delhi homeowners can stack two capital subsidies. PM Surya Ghar pays ₹30,000 per kW up to 2 kW, then ₹18,000 per kW up to 3 kW, capped at ₹78,000. On top of that, the Delhi Solar Policy adds a state capital subsidy of ₹26,000 per kW, capped at ₹78,000 — so a 3 kW system can carry up to ₹1,56,000 in combined subsidy. You also accrue the Generation Based Incentive of ₹3 per unit for systems up to 3 kW and ₹2 per unit for 3–10 kW, paid over five years.
How does net metering work with BSES Rajdhani, BSES Yamuna and Tata Power DDL?
Once the array is mounted, we file the net metering application with your DISCOM — BRPL for South, West and Central Delhi, BYPL for East Delhi, and TPDDL for North Delhi. The utility inspects the plant, tests the DCDB and ACDB, and then commissions a bi-directional smart meter. Units your panels export during peak sun hours are credited against your night-time grid consumption, so the bill reflects self-consumption first.
What capacity solar system is ideal for independent houses and builder floors in Delhi?
Most 3–4 BHK builder floors and independent homes in Delhi run a 3 kW to 7 kW system, depending on air-conditioning load. A 3 kW plant generates roughly 360 units a month; a 5 kW plant about 600. Homes above 10 kW sanctioned load can go larger, capped by DERC rules at 10 kW or 50% of sanctioned load, whichever is higher.
Do solar panels perform well during Delhi summers and winter smog?
Yes. Tier-1 TOPCon and mono PERC modules have temperature coefficients that limit generation loss in Delhi's 45°C summer peak, when solar output and air-conditioning load peak together. During winter smog, low-light efficiency keeps output usable in diffuse light, though a pre-installation shadow analysis is the only reliable way to predict your specific yield.
How long does the complete solar installation and net metering process take in Delhi?
Physical rooftop mounting and commissioning takes 2 to 4 days. DISCOM portal approval, feasibility sanction, meter testing and final net-meter commissioning typically adds 3 to 4 weeks. Brightleaf manages the full sequence, so you are not chasing the utility yourself.
