Browse the directory of empanelled, ALMM-compliant installers offering 5-year warranties.
Error-free checklist of IDs, bills, society NOCs, and ownership proofs for smooth approvals.
Track expected portal milestones from initial registry to final DBT bank account transfer.
Prevent net meter sealing delays, sanctioned load mismatch rejections, and portal sync lags.
Understand eligibility requirements under PM Surya Ghar and state electrification schemes.
⚙️ Sizing, Tech & Care
Sizing rules, structural loads, and configuration standards for housing rooftop solar.
Accelerated depreciation, tax offsets, CAPEX/OPEX models, and high-capacity system setups.
How grid-connected systems offset energy bills, grid tie-ins, and anti-islanding mechanics.
