Sigh of relief - No More Rooftop Solar Subsidy for Commercial, Industrial Sectors - India Renewable Energy Consulting – Solar, Biomass, Wind, Cleantech

In a long decision overdue, the MNRE has decided to remove the capital subsidies for commercial and industrial sectors.

What a relief.

This subsidy, which arrives late, if at all, had probably enriched more babus and their lackeys than those putting up rooftop solar. As a result, it was just a pain in the neck that just delayed decisions rather than accelerated commercial and residential rooftop solar installations

With this removal, the reduced subsidy of 15% will now be available only for 4 categories – residences, educational/research institutes, government buildings and social sector buildings (old age homes etc).

Good riddance.
