Why is rooftop solar adoption slowing despite government push?
India aims to install rooftop solar in 1 crore homes by March 2027 under PM Surya Ghar, but progress remains slow, with installations at about 25% by March 2026. Industry voices say high upfront costs, low power tariffs and shared rooftop issues are key hurdles. For many households, especially with low bills, solar may not yet be financially viable.
