NDMC unveils draft solar policy 2022

The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) has come out with its draft solar policy 2022 inviting residential properties/institutions/offices to install solar panels on their building rooftops to switch to solar energy. The policy will be applicable to any solar-generating system with the capacity of 1 kilowatt per hour or more. The civic body will provide the facility for net/reverse metering — supplying excess electricity to the grid — that will substantially reduce consumers’ electricity bills. NDMC will also offer exemption from the payment of electricity tax and cess, and conversion charges to people.
