On-Grid Solar Systems
Grid-connected solar systems with net metering support, designed to maximise electricity bill savings for homes and businesses.
Solar Connected to the Utility Grid
An on-grid (grid-tied) solar system runs alongside your existing electricity connection, drawing from the grid when needed and exporting surplus solar power back to it.
Solar Power, Grid Backup
Solar panels generate DC power converted to AC by a grid-tied inverter. Your property uses solar power first, drawing any additional need from the grid, while surplus generation is exported and credited via net metering.
Who Should Consider On-Grid Solar
On-grid solar suits homes and businesses in areas with reasonably stable grid supply, who primarily want to reduce their electricity bill.
Exporting Surplus Power Back to the Grid
Net metering allows surplus solar generation to be credited against your consumption from the grid, subject to your local discom’s process and applicable regulations.

On-Grid Solar System Price (Indicative)
On-grid solar system cost depends on capacity, panel and inverter brand, mounting structure and site conditions such as roof type and shading. Since there’s no battery involved, on-grid remains the most affordable and fastest-payback solar system type. The table below gives an indicative price range for common residential and commercial capacities across Ghaziabad and Delhi NCR — get in touch for an exact, itemised quote after a free site survey.

On-Grid vs Off-Grid vs Hybrid Solar
On-grid is the most popular and cost-effective choice for most homes and businesses with stable grid supply — here’s how it compares.
| Factor | On-Grid | Off-Grid | Hybrid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Battery Required | No | Yes | Yes |
| Works During Power Cut | No (shuts down for safety) | Yes | Yes |
| Net Metering / Export Credit | Yes | No | Yes (where permitted) |
| Relative Upfront Cost | Lowest | Highest | High |
| Payback Period | Fastest | Longest | Moderate |
| Government Subsidy Eligible | Yes (residential) | Generally no | Case-by-case |
| Best Suited For | Stable grid areas, fastest ROI | No/unreliable grid access | Frequent power cuts, need backup |
