Users consuming 50 units or less per month are eligible for a 500-watt solar panel, while those using between 50 and 100 units can get a 1-kilowatt panel.

Those consuming between 200-300 units will get 1100-watt panel is available, and those using between 300 and 400 units are eligible for a 1650-watt panel.

Users with 500 units of consumption are granted a 2200-watt panel. This approach ensures that higher electricity consumers receive larger solar panels to meet their energy needs.

The government’s initiative aims to reduce dependence on conventional energy while price from grid skyrocketed amid massive taxes.

For people using less than 200 units, there will no charges while for upper slabs of 200-500 units, there will be interest free installment plan.
