Andhra Pradesh Empanels Solar Installers

The Andhra Pradesh government has launched a significant step in its renewable energy agenda by inviting applications for the empanelment of agencies for rooftop solar installations across the state. This initiative aims to promote widespread adoption of solar power on residential, institutional, and commercial buildings, supporting Andhra Pradesh’s goal of enhancing renewable energy production and reducing its carbon footprint. The empanelment process will allow accredited agencies to install rooftop solar systems with standardized processes and facilitate quicker, more efficient installations.

The empanelment covers projects under the Central Financial Assistance (CFA) scheme, where government subsidies support a portion of the cost for rooftop solar installations, thus making it more affordable for consumers. By implementing this program, the state aims to increase participation from both urban and rural areas, providing a structured approach for installing solar systems in homes, schools, hospitals, and various government buildings. Empanelled agencies will be tasked with overseeing the complete installation process, from procurement to commissioning, while also ensuring compliance with safety and quality standards.

As per the state's renewable energy policy, a higher focus on rooftop solar will help achieve Andhra Pradesh’s ambitious targets for clean energy, aligning with India’s broader objective of reaching 500 GW of non-fossil fuel-based capacity by 2030. The initiative also creates a platform for local and regional businesses in the solar sector, potentially boosting employment and economic growth.

The rooftop solar program signifies Andhra Pradesh's commitment to sustainable energy solutions and represents a major step in fostering an ecosystem where residents and institutions can generate their electricity, reducing reliance on the grid and enhancing energy security.
