To encourage the adoption of rooftop solar energy in residential, commercial and industrial sectors, the Haryana Renewable Energy Department has issued guidelines for financial assistance.
These guidelines apply to rooftop solar systems with an output of 1 to 500 kW. If you live in Haryana, cities like Gurgaon (Gurugram), Faridabad, Palwal, Rewari or any other city, you should
know these guidelines if you are planning to install solar PV system there.
The Eligibility Criteria for CFA are as follows:
- Minimum technical specifications should be as per prescribed by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE).
- The projects must only use MNRE-approved components.
- Projects that are installed before any site is visited by a government official will not be considered for subsidies.

- If more than one user of a grid-connected rooftop solar project is connected to a common energy meter, then a joint undertaking must be provided that allows the meter to connect to more than one project with the same energy meter. These projects will also be eligible for CFA.
