Solar for Home in Sattur

For a family living in Sattur, the electricity bill is one of those fixed monthly costs that quietly eats into the household budget all year — and it tends to be higher than the state average, because Sattur's hot, dry climate means fans and coolers run practically non-stop from March right through to October. Solar for home in Sattur turns that rooftop, which has been absorbing the sun's heat with no benefit to you, into a source of free daytime electricity. A correctly sized rooftop system typically cuts a Sattur household's TANGEDCO bill by up to 90%, and with the central government's PM Surya Ghar subsidy, the net cost of a 3 kW home system is significantly lower than most families expect.

Sattur sits in Virudhunagar district, on the NH-44 corridor that runs through some of the most solar-productive geography in southern Tamil Nadu. The region gets excellent sun for most of the year — typically four to five units of electricity per installed kilowatt of solar panels per day. That means a 3 kW system on your home can generate roughly 360–450 units a month. For the average Sattur household, that covers a substantial portion of the family's needs: lighting, ceiling fans, a refrigerator, a washing machine, a water pump and, depending on how many hours you run it, even a small air conditioner.

Green Point Solar is MNRE-approved and installs across Sattur and the surrounding Virudhunagar district. We handle the entire process — from the initial roof survey and system design, through installation and TANGEDCO net-metering application, to PM Surya Ghar subsidy registration. Most families we work with find the process less complicated than they expected, precisely because we manage it end to end.

How net metering works for a Sattur home

When your solar panels generate more electricity than your home is using at that moment — say, a sunny afternoon in April when everyone is at work or school — the surplus flows back into the TANGEDCO grid through a bi-directional meter. TANGEDCO records those exported units and credits them against the units you draw from the grid at night or on overcast days. At the end of the billing cycle, you pay only for the net units consumed: what you imported minus what you exported. Many Sattur homeowners who go solar find their monthly bill drops to just the fixed charges — the energy charge itself becomes negligible.

This arrangement requires a bi-directional meter, which TANGEDCO installs as part of the net-metering approval process. We co-ordinate the net-metering application and the inspection on your behalf, so you do not have to navigate the TANGEDCO process alone.

The PM Surya Ghar subsidy — what Sattur homeowners need to know

The PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana is a central government scheme that provides a direct subsidy for residential rooftop solar installations connected to the TANGEDCO grid with net metering. The structure is:

• First 2 kW: ₹30,000 per kW, meaning ₹60,000 total for a 2 kW system.
• Third kilowatt: ₹18,000 for the additional kW.
• Cap: ₹78,000 for systems of 3 kW or larger.

The subsidy is credited directly to your registered bank account after TANGEDCO commissions the net meter and the national portal confirms the installation. We handle the portal registration, documentation and TANGEDCO co-ordination in-house — you sign where required, we run the rest.

Why families in Sattur choose Green Point Solar

After-sales service is where many solar companies disappoint homeowners. A panel that is soiled by construction dust, a connector that develops a fault in year three, or an inverter that needs a firmware update — these are the realities of owning a solar system, and they require someone who can physically visit your roof. We are a local company with a team in this region, not a website taking orders from hundreds of kilometres away.
