Solar in Meerut: Local Conditions & What to Expect
Meerut benefits from its proximity to the Gangetic plains and receives good solar irradiance of approximately 4.8 peak sun hours per day. The city's manufacturing base drives above-average household electricity consumption, making solar financially attractive. UPPCL's Meerut Zone has an established process for net metering, and most installations complete the full commissioning process within 60–70 days. The UPNEDA subsidy is consistently disbursed to Meerut applicants within 45 days of commissioning certificate submission based on recent applicant feedback.
