How much subsidy can a Noida home claim?
The central subsidy: ₹30,000 per kW for the first 2 kW, capped at ₹78,000 for systems of 3 kW or more. It applies to residential systems installed through a national-portal-registered vendor, and reaches your bank account after UPPCL / PVVNL inspects and commissions the system.
How many units does 1 kW generate in Noida?
About 120 units a month — roughly 4 units a day — depending on season, orientation and shade.
How does net metering work with UPPCL / PVVNL?
Your installer files the net-metering application after you sign. UPPCL / PVVNL reviews feasibility, replaces your meter with a bidirectional one, and commissions the system. From then on, exported solar units offset the grid units you consume at night.
Is solar worth it in Noida?
At Noida’s average tariff of ₹7.5/unit and 120 units per kW monthly, homes with bills above ₹2,000–3,000 typically recover the investment in 3–5 years.
