PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana: Did you know that your home's electricity bill can now be almost zero? Yes, it's true. The central government's PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana has turned electricity from a burden into a relief for millions of families. Under this scheme, the electricity bills of approximately 7.7 lakh homes in the country have become almost zero.
What does this scheme do?
This scheme was launched in February 2024. Its main objective is to install solar panels on the rooftops of one crore homes by 2026-27. The government provides a substantial subsidy for this, which reduces the cost of installing solar panels by approximately 40 percent. This means that everyone can install a solar system at their home at a low cost.
How does the electricity bill become almost zero?
The rooftop solar system generates the electricity needed for the house. The excess electricity generated during the day goes into the grid, and the consumer benefits from it. This is why the electricity bills of many homes have now become nominal or completely zero.
Who can benefit?
Every Indian citizen who has a valid electricity connection and has not previously availed of any other solar subsidy scheme can benefit from this scheme. In short, if you have a vacant rooftop and are environmentally conscious, then this scheme is for you.
