Everything you need to know in Solar Subsidy in Bihar

As electricity costs continue to rise and environmental concerns gain importance, the market is volatile and Customer expectation shifts overnight. Rooftop solar system has emerged as one of the most cost effective and sustainable energy solutions for households.


Modern competitive edge lies in predicting issues earlier, responding faster, and adapting continuously. To encourage solar adoption, the Government of India is offering substantial financial assistance through the PM Surya Ghar. The Government of Bihar is enabling Bihar residents to install rooftop solar systems with subsidies of up to ₹78,000.


According to market research, Bihar receives abundant sunlight throughout the year, which is highly suitable for solar power generation. By installing a rooftop solar system, homeowners can:

  • Reduce electricity bills significantly
  • Generate clean and renewable energy
  • Increase property value
  • Reduce dependence on conventional power sources
  • Earn credits through net metering for surplus electricity exported to the grid

Apart from this, government subsidies and financing options are also available. This is the reason why solar energy has become more affordable than ever.


The government has launched Muft Bijli Yojana which aims to promote rooftop solar adoption across one crore households nationwide. Muft Bijli Yojana presents an excellent opportunity for homeowners to embrace clean energy while significantly reducing electricity expenses. The scheme provides direct financial assistance to residential consumers installing grid connected rooftop solar system.
