Everyone is troubled by the ever-increasing electricity prices across the country. Let us tell you that coal is used on a large scale to generate electricity in India. A few days ago there were reports that there is a huge shortage of coal in the country. In such a situation, today we are going to tell you about such a scheme, from which you will get electricity for free. Under this scheme, you can get solar panels installed on your roof. For this the government will also help you.
Scheme has been started to promote solar energy
The name of this scheme is ‘Solar Rooftop Subsidy Scheme’. This scheme is being run by the Government of India to promote solar rooftops in the country. With the Solar Rooftop Scheme, the central government encourages the use of never-ending energy in the country. For this, the central government gives subsidy on solar rooftop installation to the consumers.
Free electricity for 20 years
Under the Solar Rooftop Subsidy Scheme, you can reduce the cost of electricity by 30 to 50 percent by installing a solar rooftop on the roof of your house. Solar rooftop will provide electricity for 25 years and in this scheme the expenses will be paid in 5-6 years. After this, you will get the benefit of free electricity from solar for the next 19-20 years.
