As many as 10 million homes in the country will get rooftop solar power for free electricity, said Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in her Interim Budget speech on Thursday, taking forward the theme of taking green energy to consumers.
“Through rooftop solarisation, one crore households will be enabled to obtain up to 300 units free electricity every month. Saving up to Rs 15-18,000 annually for households from free solar electricity and selling the surplus to the distribution companies,” Sitharaman said.
