Electricity Bills Are Rising Every Year — Solar Is the Permanent Solution

Electricity tariffs across residential categories are increasing almost every year. Whether you live in Delhi, Noida, Gurgaon, or any major city, you already know how painful the monthly bills have become.

A normal middle-class family paying:

₹1,500–₹2,000 per month in 2018

Today pays ₹3,000–₹4,000 (sometimes even ₹5,000+)

And the reality is: prices will not go down.

On the other hand, solar gives you free electricity for 25+ years.
Once the system is installed and paid, the sun does the rest.

In the last few years, India has witnessed a massive shift towards solar energy—especially residential rooftop solar. From Delhi to Uttar Pradesh, from Haryana to Rajasthan, homeowners are now actively looking for ways to reduce their electricity bills and become more energy-independent.

But why is 2025 the perfect time to install a rooftop solar system?
Because this year, the combination of government subsidies, rising electricity rates, and improved solar technology makes solar not just an eco-friendly choice—but a smart financial decision.

Let’s break it down in a simple, realistic, and practical way.

Top 7 Benefits of Rooftop Solar (Quick List)

  • Save up to 90% on electricity bills

  • Subsidy support from central/state government

  • Low maintenance cost

  • 25+ years warranty

  • Increases property value

  • Zero pollution, eco-friendly energy

  • Energy-independence for your home

Low Maintenance: Just One Cleaning Per Month

Many people think solar panels require a lot of maintenance.
Not true.

Most Indian households clean their rooftops regularly. Cleaning a solar panel is equally simple.

  • soft brush or water spray is enough

  • No daily cleaning — just 2–4 times a month

  • Inverters require annual servicing

At SOLAR-MAIT, our team provides complete AMC & O&M services, so you don’t have to worry about upkeep.

How Much Area Is Needed for Solar?

This is a common question asked by 90% of homeowners.

Approx. space required:

  • 1 kW = 80 sq ft

  • 2 kW = 160 sq ft

  • 3 kW = 240 sq ft

  • 5 kW = 400 sq ft

If you have a medium-sized Indian rooftop, you already have enough space for a 3–5 kW system.

Why 2025-2026 Is the Best Year to Install Solar

Here’s the real truth:

1. Government subsidies may reduce in coming years

The scheme is already receiving huge demand.

2. Electricity prices are not going to drop

Discoms are increasing tariffs across multiple states.

3. Solar technology is at its peak

Panels are more efficient and long-lasting.

4. Financing options are easier than ever

5. Installation timelines are faster with solar agencies like SOLAR-MAIT

So, delaying only increases your electricity bills — nothing else.

Lower electricity bills

Energy independence
