When discussing solar energy, we think about the pricing of the solar system and the subsidy scheme for solar panels. The Government of India has launched a power saving scheme called Solar Roof Top Power Plant to save wealth for future generations. We all know the obvious reason for not using solar energy in the residential / commercial sector and its value. Therefore, realizing this problem, the Central Government launched the MNRE Solar Subsidy Scheme.
MNRE solar subsidy scheme
