The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- Delhi's electricity regulator has amended net metering guidelines to make rooftop solar installation easier, waiving technical feasibility checks for domestic systems up to 10kW.
- The revised rules, effective July 16 and applicable to pending applications, reduce the approval process from three stages to two and move it entirely online.
- Officials say feasibility studies for small residential systems added time and paperwork without significant safety benefits, while larger systems face time-bound deadlines of 25 days for connectivity.
- The changes aim to speed up adoption of rooftop solar under the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana.
What to watch next
- How quickly discoms clear the backlog of pending applications under the new rules
- Whether faster approvals lead to a rise in domestic rooftop solar installations in Delhi
- Compliance with the 25-day connectivity deadline for systems above 10kW
