Bhubaneswar, June 17, 2025: Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL) today announced the launch of India’s most affordable rooftop solar solution at Bhubaneshwar under its 'GharGhar Solar' campaign.
The company’s accessible, consumer-centric financing model makes rooftop solar affordable for a broader segment of Odisha’s population. Residents can install systems with minimal upfront investment starting from ₹2,499 for 1 kW, ₹4,999 for 2 kW, and ₹7,999 for 3 kW. This initiative is impactful for households, turning solar adoption from an aspiration into an economically viable option.
This first-of-its-kind initiative is set to accelerate residential rooftop solar adoption across the state by enabling customers to pay just one-third of the total amount, making solar power more accessible, affordable, and seamlessly integrated into households.
Odisha consumers gain substantial financial benefits through the PM Surya Ghar: MuftBijliYojana, which offers subsidies up to ₹78,000 for solar systems up to 3 kW, covering nearly 40% of installation costs.
