Electricity Bill Comparison: Before vs After

₹3,800 - ₹4,200

Prior to rooftop solar, high summer electricity usage drove billing into the highest tariff slabs.

Monthly Bill After Solar Commissioning
₹350 - ₹500 (Minimum Fixed Charges)

Solar generation meets virtually the entire daytime load, leaving only basic fixed meter connection charges.

The Challenge

The homeowner wanted to retain usable rooftop terrace space for evening gatherings while generating enough power to offset 2 AC units and a refrigerator during hot summer months.

The Engineering Solution

Engineered a custom 7-foot elevated hot-dip galvanized mounting structure angled at 25 degrees south. Installed 6 high-efficiency 550W mono PERC bifacial panels coupled with dual-MPPT grid-tied inverter and dedicated copper chemical earthing.
