What a solar company in Gorakhpur can arrange
-
Rooftop solar for homes
Independent houses and small apartment blocks in areas like Basharatpur and Rajendra Nagar can use a 2 kW or 3 kW system to cut electricity bills and reduce dependence on the grid during power cuts.
-
Commercial solar installation
Shops and offices in Golghar, Betiahata and Padri Bazar can install rooftop systems sized to their daytime load, with net metering through MVVNL.
-
Ground mounted solar
For homes with open space or commercial premises without a suitable roof, ground mounted systems are an option. An installer can assess the site and design the structure.
-
Solar panel cleaning
Dust and bird droppings reduce output. Local installers offer periodic cleaning, which matters in Gorakhpur’s dry summer months.
Where rooftop solar makes sense in Gorakhpur
The old city has dense housing with shared walls and small roofs, but newer colonies like Rustampur, Basharatpur, Rajendra Nagar and Taramandal have independent houses and small apartment blocks with enough roof space for a 2–3 kW system. Commercial areas such as Golghar and Padri Bazar see daytime load that solar can offset. Homeowners in these areas are the most likely to benefit from the PM Surya Ghar subsidy and net metering.

Summer is the time to plan
Gorakhpur’s electricity demand rises sharply in summer, and power cuts are common. A rooftop system installed before the peak months can reduce your dependence on the grid when you need cooling the most. Installers are busier in summer, so getting quotes early gives you more choice.
Questions Gorakhpur homeowners ask
How much subsidy can I get for rooftop solar in Gorakhpur?
Under PM Surya Ghar, the central subsidy is ₹30,000 per kW for the first 2 kW and ₹18,000 for the third kW, capped at ₹78,000 for 3 kW and above. Uttar Pradesh may offer an additional state top-up; check the current amount on the National Portal.
Which DISCOM handles net metering in Gorakhpur?
MVVNL (Madhyanchal Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited) is the serving DISCOM for Gorakhpur. Residential applications go through pmsuryaghar.gov.in, and MVVNL does the feasibility check and installs the net meter.
What is the price of a 3 kW solar system in Gorakhpur?
A 3 kW on-grid residential system with installation starts between ₹2,15,000 and ₹2,47,000. The final price depends on the roof, structure and installer. The PM Surya Ghar subsidy reduces your net cost.
Can I install solar on a flat or apartment in Gorakhpur?
If you own the roof or have society permission, you can install a system. For flats, the roof is usually common property, so you need the housing society’s written consent. Independent houses and duplexes are simpler.
How long does it take to get the subsidy after installation?
After the installer submits the redemption request on the National Portal with correct details, the average processing time is around 15 days. The amount is credited directly to your bank account.
Do solar panels work during power cuts in Gorakhpur?
A standard on-grid system switches off during a power cut for safety. If you want backup during outages, you need a hybrid system with batteries, which costs more. Discuss this with the installer during the site visit.
