Solar Panel Subsidy in Maharashtra, 2024

The solar project subsidy in Maharashtra is managed by MEDA. Maharashtra’s installed solar energy capacity now accounts for more than 1800 MW and rooftop solar is near 230 MW. It has the fourth-highest installed rooftop solar power generation capacity across the country. The state is strengthening its policy of providing financial assistance for using solar energy in cottage and micro industries.

Required documentation is needed to submit to MEDA online by a developer on behalf of the eligible customer. Following the provisional approval, the completion report needs to be submitted. After that site visit and site inspection is done by the officials. After all these formalities, the subsidy amount is directly deposited to the customer’s account within 2-3 months of issuing the grant letter.

 

How & how much subsidy on solar can be availed?

Subsidy/Support is available from Central Government through MNRE.

The subsidy available on the installation of grid-connected solar rooftop power plants is 30% of the benchmark cost. Government institutions including PSUs shall not be eligible for the subsidy. Instead, they will be given achievement-linked incentives/awards. All residential and institutional buildings such as schools, health institutions, etc. and the social sector can avail CFA.
