An Overview on Solar Panel Subsidy in Tamilnadu

KCP Solar > Blog > An Overview on Solar Panel Subsidy in Tamilnadu

Solar Panel Subsidy plays a pivotal role in making the massive upfront cost of solar panels much more accessible. Despite the massive upfront cost, solar panels have been one of the most efficient ways to enjoy free electricity for 25-30 years. With advancements in photovoltaic technology, the cost of installing solar panels for homes has decreased over the last few years. In addition, the attractive subsidies offered by the Tamil Nadu Government have made the technology within reach for commoners.

The cost of solar panels depends on their technology, size, and type (whether it is Roof Top Solar Hybrid, on-grid, or off-grid). Generally, solar panels with greater capacities are at a lesser cost on per watt calculation vs the small capacity panels as their cost increases on a per watt basis. Nevertheless, digging into every aspect of the price change will be a tedious effort. Henceforth, we have tried to outline the solar panel subsidy offered by the Tamil Nadu government.

What Our Clients Say

By KCP Solar Company, Salem, I generate 3 KW daily solar electricity at my own house and supply that electricity to the Tamil Nadu Electricity Department, so from paying an electricity bill of Rs.5000/- (bi-monthly), now it is only Rs.300/- I will pay. I will get my investment back in three years (with this low electricity bill). This solar power will help us to reduce our electricity bill. Following me, my friends have also done solar power projects in their own houses. Vignesh working in KCP and Vinod Managing Director of that company are experts in this solar power generation.

Sathiya Moorthi

Installed 4kw Adani panel with Growatt Inverter and Net Metering. The KCP Solar team provided an excellent installation and service. Their salesperson Babu was very polite and explained everything about the panel and system. Overall satisfactory service was provided by the KCP team. They promised daily production of 16 units for a 4 kW plant. However, the average daily production for the past 4 months is 17 units. Solar with an ongrid system is very useful for residential houses and the KCP Solar team is highly recommended.
