Dombivli Solar Project

Mumbai college installs solar panels, cuts down electricity bill by 40%

The National Education Society (NES)�s Ratnam College at Bhandup became the first educational institute in north-east Mumbai to install solar power plant on its premises. The college spent Rs7.10 lakh on the project

The 34 solar panels, each capable of producing 300 watt power (Wp), can collectively produce 40 kilowatt hour (kWh) electricity daily and 14,600 kWh annually. The power generated by the plant is expected to reduce the institute�s electricity bill by 40%.

Students said they want to understand the concept of solar power in detail and urge residential societies to adopt it.

Maharashtra solar policy

Maharashtra has set a target of generating additional grid-connected solar power capacity of 7500 MW by 2019. Of this, 2500 MW would be generated as a public-private partnership with MAHAGENCO (Maharashtra State Power Generation Company Ltd, formerly known as the MSEB). The remaining 5000MW solar power projects will be tendered to other developers.

Rooftop Solar

Maharashtra approved the state�s rooftop solar energy policy in January 2016.

The policy offers several concessions encouraging both public departments and private entities to go solar. The policy instructs Civic Development Authorities to provide construction permission only to government buildings and colonies that pledge to install rooftop solar.

Government and semi-government offices that have pledged to go solar can receive up to 100% subsidy, while private offices and companies can receive up to 15% subsidy for installing rooftop solar panels.

Residential, commercial and industrial buildings are setting up rooftop solar systems to cut down energy bills, making use of the subsidies offered by the government.

Net Metering for Domestic Solar Rooftops

Maharashtra provides a net metering system for domestic solar rooftops. The size of the solar system determines the voltage level that will be fed into the grid, and the MSEDCL (Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Co. Ltd.) is in charge of the application processing for Net Metering.
