Society Solar FAQs
How much space is needed for a society solar system?
Typically, 100 sq ft per kW. A 100kW system needs ~10,000 sq ft, which can be spread across multiple rooftops (all residential blocks, clubhouse, etc.). We optimize usage of all available shadow-free roof space.
Will solar work for societies with multiple electricity connections?
Yes! We design systems that work with multiple meters. Solar power can be distributed across different common area connections through net metering or virtual net metering arrangements.
How do we get member approval for solar installation?
We provide complete support: detailed proposal with financials, presentation to managing committee, resident awareness sessions, FAQ documents, AGM presentation, and helping address member concerns. We've successfully helped 100+ societies get approvals.
What if our society doesn't have funds for CAPEX model?
Choose our OPEX/RESCO model with zero investment. You pay only for solar power consumed at rates 20-40% lower than grid tariff. Alternative options include: small member contributions, bank loans at attractive rates, or corpus fund utilization.
Who maintains the solar system?
For CAPEX: We provide warranty and can offer annual maintenance contracts. For OPEX: We maintain the system throughout the contract period at no extra cost to the society.
