Rooftop Solar for Home.
Cut your monthly electricity bill significantly with a custom-sized 3kW or 5kW rooftop solar system. Get direct government subsidies under PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, with Solin Green handling the paperwork for you
3kW Solar System
A good fit for 2-3 BHK homes using around 300-360 units a month. A 3kW system typically generates 12-15 units a day and qualifies for the maximum government subsidy of ₹78,000.
5kW Solar System
Built for larger 4+ BHK homes or villas running 2-3 air conditioners, water pumps, and other heavy appliances. A 5kW system generates roughly 20-25 units daily, giving you enough headroom for higher household loads.
25-Year Panel Warranty
We use Tier-1 N-Type TOPCon and Mono PERC solar panels, built to hold up against high winds, extreme temperatures, and heavy rain — backed by a 25-year performance warranty.
Power Your House with Clean Energy:
Best Solar for Home Solutions
Eliminating surging grid electricity bills while transitioning to clean power makes a modern solar for home setup one of the highest-yielding domestic investments available. Whether you reside in an independent villa, a gated community, or a private row house, converting your unutilized rooftop footprint enables you to cut daylight grid reliance by 80% to 90%. Engineered with high-efficiency residential solar panels, these arrays deliver continuous, resilient solar electricity for home across extreme weather patterns, scorching summers, and monsoons.
Why Install a Complete Home Solar System?
Discover the engineering and financial pillars that make residential photovoltaic infrastructure indispensable.
Consistent Bill Savings
During peak daylight hours, heavy appliances operate straight from self-produced solar power. This drastically diminishes regular units drawn from the utility grid, flattening escalating tariff bracket hikes.
Property Value Boost
Homes featuring premium grid-synchronized solar infrastructures yield significantly higher resale valuations and attract eco-conscious homebuyers who prioritize lower long-term operating costs.
Minimal Upkeep & Durability
Tier-1 N-Type TOPCon and Mono-PERC modules are solid-state assemblies with zero moving elements. They arrive with comprehensive 25-year linear generation warranties requiring only basic periodic cleaning.
Eco-Friendly Decarbonization
Adopting clean solar electricity for home operations offsets metric tons of coal-fired thermal plant carbon emissions every year, directly accelerating India’s sustainable net-zero emission targets.
Finding the Right Solar Capacity for Your Rooftop
Evaluating your past electricity bills alongside daily electrical loads guarantees you choose the ideal system size without over-engineering your roof space or running short during heatwaves.
| System Size | Ideal Consumption Profile | Daily Units Generated | Monthly Savings (Est.) | Govt Subsidy Support |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 kW System₹78,000 Direct Credit | 2–3 BHK Residences (Lights, Fans, Fridge, 1 AC) | Daily Generation:12 – 14 Units | Est. Savings:₹2,500 – ₹3,500 | ₹78,000 Direct Credit |
| 5 kW System₹78,000 Max Cap | 3–4 BHK Independent Floors (2 ACs, Washing Machine, Pumps) | Daily Generation:20 – 23 Units | Est. Savings:₹4,500 – ₹6,000 | ₹78,000 Max Cap |
| 10 kW SystemApplicable Institutional/Discom Tiers | Large Villas / Heavy Loads (3–4 ACs, EV Chargers, Water Heaters) | Daily Generation:40 – 45 Units | Est. Savings:₹9,000 – ₹13,000 | Applicable Institutional/Discom Tiers |
On-Grid vs. Hybrid Solar Systems: Making the Right Selection
Choosing the right balance between grid synchronization and standalone battery storage defines your investment returns and power availability.
On-Grid Solar Systems
If your top priority is driving electricity bills down to absolute zero and your local municipal grid is stable with minimal outages, an on-grid solar for home setup delivers the shortest payback timeline (typically 3 to 3.5 years). Through a bi-directional net-metering connection, surplus solar units produced in the afternoon feed directly back into the public grid, generating billing credits to offset nighttime power draw.
- Zero battery maintenance or replacement overhead
- Eligible for maximum central government capital subsidies
Hybrid Solar Systems
If your locality experiences recurring blackouts or voltage fluctuations, a hybrid residential solar system pairs clean daytime solar generation with an advanced lithium ferro-phosphate (LiFePO4) storage bank. It intelligently prioritizes charging batteries, powering critical home loads, and exporting remaining surplus to the grid.
- Uninterrupted power supply across blackouts and night hours
- Built-in voltage protection for sensitive domestic appliances

For Medium Urban Households- Daily Generation: 12 – 15 Units / day
- Rooftop Space Needed: ~300 sq. ft. shadow-free area
- Appliance Capacity: 1 AC (1.5 Ton), Refrigerator, TV, Fans, Lights, Washing Machine
- Recommended Monthly Bill: ₹3,000 – ₹5,000
5kW Solar System
For Large Residences & Villas- Daily Generation: 20 – 25 Units / day
- Rooftop Space Needed: ~500 sq. ft. shadow-free area
- Appliance Capacity: 2-3 ACs, Water Pump, Refrigerator, EV Charger (Slow), All Household Electronics
- Recommended Monthly Bill: ₹6,000 – ₹10,000+
Home Solar Panel Installation Step-by-Step Process
Our certified engineers inspect your roof orientation, structural integrity, and shadow zones using 3D solar mapping software.
We design optimized panel layouts choosing between 3kW or 5kW configurations paired with high-efficiency grid-tied inverters.
Using heavy-duty galvanized iron (GI) elevated structures, panels are secured safely against wind speeds up to 170 km/h.
We handle DISCOM approvals, bi-directional net-meter installation, and all safety clearances needed to connect your system to the grid.
Your system goes live! We submit your subsidy claim directly to the national portal, and the amount is typically credited to your bank account within 30 days.
