The 3 kW breakdown for a Gurugram home
What it powers: a typical 2–3 BHK family’s full load — one AC through the summer, plus fridge, TV, washing machine, mixer and lights — with net metering covering night-time use.
Roof you need: about 270–300 sq ft of shadow-free space. Panels are mounted on a raised GI structure, so you keep usable terrace below.
Money over 25 years: beyond the 3-year break-even, the system keeps producing against tariffs that rise every year. Panels carry 25-year performance warranties; the inverter is the one mid-life replacement (around year 10–12).
Paperwork: your installer files for net metering with DHBVN / UHBVN after you sign; the subsidy runs through the national portal and reaches your account after commissioning — the full process.
