The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has announced a new framework for the PM-Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana. This initiative aims to install rooftop solar power plants in one crore Indian households. This framework was published through an Office Memorandum dated June 21, 2024.
Launched in February 29, 2024, the PM-Surya Ghar Yojana aims to provide free solar electricity to millions of homes across India. The scheme boasts a total financial outlay of Rs. 75,021 crore to support rooftop solar installations.
Ensuring Consumer Choice and Quality:
To empower consumers with informed decision-making, the MNRE has established a framework for enlisting solar PV modules and inverters under the scheme.
This framework will ensure that consumers will have access to a clear list of approved solar product models. Additionally, only high-efficiency and warranty-backed solar products will be included in the list. Consumers can choose products that best suit their needs and budget.
