PM Surya Ghar Yojana: Powering Homes with Solar Energy
The PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana is a transformative initiative by the Government of India to promote solar energy in residential homes. This scheme encourages families to install rooftop solar panels and enjoy significant savings on electricity bills.

Under this program, eligible households can receive financial support to install solar systems on their rooftops. Once installed, the system can generate enough power to meet daily household needs. In addition, any extra electricity produced can be sent back to the grid, offering potential income or bill credits for homeowners.
The government has made the application process simple through an official online portal where users can register, apply for the subsidy, and track the status. Banks and financial institutions are also offering low-interest loans to support families in adopting this green energy shift.
Besides cost savings, the scheme plays a vital role in environmental sustainability, helping reduce reliance on fossil fuels and lowering carbon emissions. It supports India’s mission toward clean energy and self-reliance.
By switching to rooftop solar, families not only reduce their electricity bills but also contribute to a cleaner, greener future. The PM Surya Ghar Yojana empowers citizens to become part of India’s energy revolution—right from their rooftops.
