To meet the shortage of electricity and to promote renewable energy, the government has been working to make solar energy accessible to the common people. In order to become self-reliant or Atmanirbhar, many schemes are being run at the state as well as Central level.
To lessen the water problems in farms and promote irrigation across every field, the government has focused on solar pump yojana and distribution of solar panel to the farmers.
Some people are unable to take advantage of this due to the high cost involved in installing solar energy panels. In view of this problem, the Haryana government is giving a sizeable subsidy to install solar power panels.
Under these schemes, people are given subsidy to install solar panels at home. The money which is received as subsidy don’t need to return later. At the same time, the electricity from the solar panel is completely free. This also reduces the electricity bill of the house.
