This scheme aims to make clean, renewable energy both affordable and accessible to the average Indian family by offering financial subsidies and incentives.

Up to ₹30,000 for a 1 kW system
Up to ₹60,000 for 2 kW

Additionally, households can enjoy free electricity of up to 300 units per month, significantly reducing their power bills.
