What Affects Solar System Price?
The cost depends on five main things:
- System size (kW) — more panels = more power = more cost
- Type of system — on-grid (no battery) is cheapest; off-grid and hybrid cost more due to batteries
- Panel quality — mono PERC and half-cut panels cost more than standard poly but perform better
- Inverter brand & type — string inverters vs hybrid inverters
- Battery — lead-acid (cheaper) vs lithium LiFePO4 (higher upfront, better long-term)
2026 Price Table (Approximate)

How Much Can Solar Save You?
A typical Wayanad home uses 300–600 units per month. With net metering:
| Monthly Bill (approx.) | Recommended Solar | Estimated Monthly Saving |
|---|---|---|
| ₹1,000 – ₹2,000 | 1–2kW | 70–100% of daytime usage |
| ₹2,000 – ₹4,000 | 3kW | 70–90% |
| ₹4,000 – ₹7,000 | 5kW | 60–85% |
| ₹7,000+ | 5kW–10kW | Buyback + savings |
On-Grid vs Off-Grid — Which Should You Choose?
- On-grid — no battery, works with net metering, lowest cost. Best if you have reliable grid power and want to cut your bill.
- Off-grid — battery storage, works during power cuts. Best for farms, estates, and areas with frequent cuts.
- Hybrid — grid-connected with battery backup. Best of both, slightly higher cost.

Example: 3kW Solar System for a Wayanad Home
Take a typical 3-BHK home in Kalpetta with a ₹3,000 monthly bill:
- System: 3kW on-grid, 6 panels × 550W
- Upfront cost: ~₹1.6–₹2 lakh (less after PM Surya Ghar subsidy of ₹78,000)
- Generation: ~4–4.5 units/day per kW → roughly 360–400 units/month
- Monthly saving: ₹2,500–₹3,000
- Payback: ~3–5 years
After payback, you enjoy 20+ years of near-free electricity — panels carry a 25-year performance warranty.
