Not just firms, but residents too can benefit from the interim Budget announcement for “solarisation” of rooftops of one crore households.
Through rooftop solarisation, one crore households will obtain up to 300 units of free electricity every month, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced during her budget speech on Thursday.
This initiative, introduced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in January, focuses on the installation of rooftop solar panels. The scheme will also aid charging of electric vehicles; entrepreneurship opportunities for a large number of vendors for supply and installation and employment opportunities for the youth with technical skills in manufacturing, installation, and maintenance.
