Clarification in Guidelines for Implementation of PM-Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana
This refers OM No 318/17/2024-GCRT dated 07.06.2024 regarding notification of Operational Guidelines for Implementation of PM Surya Glum Muft Bijli Yojana (PMSG: MBY) for the component of “CFA to residential consumers”.
Currently, para 5 (b) of above scheme guidelines states that “For the purpose of
CFA, residential RTS plant would be the grid connected solar power system tagged to a particular residential power connection of the local DISCOM and will only include installations on a roof/terrace/balcony or on top of elevated structures”. A nutnber of representations have been received stating that many roofs, especially in mral areas are not suitable for rooftop solar therefore beneficiaries are not able to benefit from PMSG:MBY Scheme. It is also the intent of the scheme to allow apartment dwellers to participate in the scheme through Virtual Net Metering arrangements which can be made viable through ground mounted elevated installations.
In view of the above, it is clarified that ground-mounted elevated installations,
meeting the technical specifications detailed in the guidelines are explicitly allowed in the scheme. This clarification will apply both on capex mode as per OM mentioned above as well as RESCO/Utility Led Mode of implementation under the PMSG: MBY as per OM issued vide file No. 318/17/2024-GCRT Part (15) dated 28.12.2024.
This issues with the approval of the competent authority.
