Tata Power Rolls Out Affordable Solar Rooftop Solutions

• Launches solar rooftop solutions starting from Rs 2499 in Odisha, backed by attractive financing options
• Aiming to accelerate India's clean energy transition with a target of 3 lakh rooftop installations in Odisha and 10 lakhs nationwide in the next 3 to 5 years
• Tied up with OREDA to boost state wide solar adoption
• Launches lifestyle solar solutions by expanding the product portfolio beyond simple solar rooftop systems

Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited (TPREL), India's leading rooftop solar company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Power, today announced the launch of India’s most affordable rooftop solar solution at Bhubaneshwar in Odisha under its 'Ghar Ghar 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: Muft Bijli Yojana, which offers subsidies up to ₹78,000 for solar systems up to 3 kW, covering nearly 40% of installation costs. The initiative is further strengthened through the State Government’s additional subsidy of ₹25,000 for a 1 kW system, ₹ 50,000 for a 2 kW system, and up to ₹ 60,000 for systems 3 kW and above. This financial support significantly accelerates rooftop solar adoption, making clean energy solutions accessible to households across the state. 

To cater to evolving needs, Tata Power has also introduced two enhanced Lifestyle solutions for residential customers:

• MySine – a compact, intelligent solar + battery backup system for uninterrupted power
• Solar Design Spaces – a curated range of 25 aesthetic rooftop installations blending sustainability with style

Odisha has already witnessed a remarkable surge in rooftop solar adoption, significantly driven by the growing awareness created through the 'Ghar Ghar Solar' initiative. The total consumer base has grown over four times, from 430 to 1,759, underscoring the deepening penetration of solar energy among both residential and commercial consumers. In FY25 alone, the Company onboarded 1,033 new solar rooftop customers, a tenfold increase from FY24 in the state. The Commercial & Industrial (C&I) segment also showed consistent growth in Odisha, with 76 consumers added in FY25, up from 56 consumers in FY24.

TPREL, the No 1 Rooftop Solar company for 10 years now, offers a comprehensive range of benefits to its solar rooftop consumers, including a 25-year warranty on modules, trusted quality assurance, exclusive sales and service in over 450+ districts, lifetime service and after-sales support across India, easy financing options, and insurance for solar rooftop systems.

Tata Power Installs 1 Lakh Rooftop Solar Panels Across India, With 33,000 Specifically in Kerala

Tata Power has successfully installed one lakh rooftop solar panels across India, with 33,000 panels specifically in Kerala. This milestone is significant, especially considering the recent announcement of the PM Surya Ghar Yojana, which aims to provide clean energy to every households. Tata Power Solar offers off-grid solutions for smaller roof areas.

This was announced by Tata Power CEO and Managing Director Praveer Sinha.

“We intend to replicate the successful Kerala model in other regions,” Sinha said during a press conference on Thursday.

In Kochi, Sinha launched the company’s “GharGhar Solar” initiative, designed to promote rooftop solar adoption and raise awareness of its benefits. Kochi is the third city to launch this program, following Jodhpur and Varanasi. The initiative offers significant financial incentives for homeowners to adopt advanced rooftop solar solutions.

Tata Power is expanding "GharGhar Solar” initiative across all states and union territories, aiming to capture a 20-25% market share of the one crore rooftop solar installations targeted by the PM Surya Ghar Yojana. The company plans to bolster its network of over 500 channel partners to 5,000, ensuring nationwide coverage.

A notable development in Kerala includes the commissioning of a 101.6 MWp floating solar power project in the backwaters at Kayamkulam. Floating solar projects are advantageous as they conserve land, reduce water evaporation, and enhance solar panel efficiency through the cooling effect of water. Sinha revealed that Tata Power has already installed a similar 88 MW plant in Madhya Pradesh and is exploring opportunities for additional floating projects in other states.

Tata Power Solar Systems Limited has launched the "Ghar Ghar Solar, Tata Power ke Sang" initiative in Uttar Pradesh (UP), starting from Varanasi. This ambitious program aims to power every home in UP with clean energy through state-of-the-art Rooftop Solar Solutions (RTS). Residents can avail a maximum subsidy of up to ₹1,08,000 on rooftop sor installation. The subsidy includes ₹78,000 from the Central Government for up to 3 kW and an additional ₹30,000 (₹15,000 per kW) from the State Government.

Tata Power Solar's commitment to quality and innovation ensures a hassle-free switch to solar power, contributing to energy availability and sustainability in the region¹. Additionally, there's a nationwide campaign called "#GharGharSolar, Tata Power ke Sangh," which encourages consumers across India to adopt clean energy by promoting residential solar rooftop solutions².
