Q1. How much area is required for GCPV systems?
A1. Rooftop solar PV systems general require 5-8m2 or 50-80 sq. ft. clean shadow free area per kW to install and work. Which means that a 25kW system will require about 2,000 sq. ft. of clean shadow free rooftop area.
Q2. How much does it cost to install a rooftop solar PV system?
A2. As per latest MNRE guidelines, systems from 1-10kWp can cost upto Rs. 70,000/kWp, capacities above that cost Rs. 65,000/kWp. Which means that a 25kWp system can be installed for as low as Rs. 16,25,000/-
Q3. What are the subsidies or capital support from the government?
A3. Available benefits and subsidies on solar PV systems are very dynamic and subject to installed capacities as well as government revenues. Currently the following benefits are applicable for customers:

- Commercial and industrial customers: 40% accelerated depreciation benefits on total system cost
Q4. What is time required to complete solar installation?
A4. Due to customised nature of the solar PV system, it takes about 4-6 weeks to install a rooftop system. However the actual site work is limited to 1-2 weeks.
Q5. How much units of electricity will be generated from solar PV system?
A5. Though generation depends on variety of factors such as project location, module cleanliness etc. but as a rule of thumb upto 4.5 kWh per day can be generated by 1kW system. Hence a 25kW system will generate about 110 kWh per day and about 40,000 units per year.
