Where rooftop solar makes sense in Bhopal
Bhopal's older planned colonies and newer townships have a high share of independent houses with unshaded flat roofs, which are the easiest to fit with solar. Apartment owners can still benefit, but the process depends on society approval and available common roof space.

Bhopal's weather and solar output
Bhopal gets strong sun for most of the year, but monsoon months reduce generation. Installers size systems on annual average output, so a 3 kW system will still generate more than 300 units a month on average across the year.
Solar questions Bhopal homeowners ask
How much subsidy can I get for rooftop solar in Bhopal?
Under PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, the subsidy is 60% of system cost for 2 kW and 40% for additional capacity up to 3 kW. At current benchmark prices, that means ₹30,000 for 1 kW, ₹60,000 for 2 kW, and ₹78,000 for 3 kW or higher. Apply through the National Portal and select a vendor.
What is the price of a 2 kW solar system in Bhopal?
A 2 kW on-grid residential system with installation starts between ₹1,75,000 and ₹2,13,000. The final price depends on the roof, inverter brand, and installer charges. The PM Surya Ghar subsidy reduces the upfront cost.
Which DISCOM handles net metering in Bhopal?
Bhopal is served by the Central DISCOM, MPMKVVCL. Residential applications go through pmsuryaghar.gov.in, and the DISCOM does the feasibility check and installs the net meter. Check current MPERC regulations for capacity limits.
Can I install solar on my apartment in Bhopal?
If you own a flat, you need society approval and a share of common roof space. Some societies install a common system for common-area load. Individual net metering for flats is possible only where the DISCOM and society allow it.
How long does it take to get the subsidy after installation?
After the installer commissions the system and you submit the redemption request on the National Portal, the average processing time is around 15 days if all credentials are entered correctly.
Will a 3 kW system cover my entire electricity bill?
A 3 kW system will generate more than 300 units a month on average. If your monthly consumption is around that level, it can cover most of your bill. You can also sell surplus power to the DISCOM under net metering.
