Key Challenges Impacting the Scheme
1.Shortage and High Costs of DCR Solar Panels: The mandatory use of DCR-compliant panels has led to supply constraints and price surges. Prices for DCR panels have escalated to ₹25 per watt, compared to ₹15 for panels using imported cells, making installations financially burdensome for vendors and consumers alike.
2. Technical Glitches in Verification Portals: Installers have reported issues with the PM Surya Ghar portal, particularly errors related to module serial number verification. These glitches hinder the uploading of necessary documentation, causing delays in project approvals and installations.
3. Administrative and Procedural Delays: In states like Rajasthan, bureaucratic inefficiencies have resulted in prolonged timelines for feasibility approvals, load extensions, and net metering processes. Despite orders to expedite these procedures, many local offices have not adhered to the revised timelines, further stalling the scheme's progress.
4. Subsidy Disbursement Issues: A significant number of households that have installed rooftop solar systems under the scheme are awaiting subsidy payouts. Data indicates that at least 42% of such households have not yet received their subsidies, undermining trust in the program.
Recommendations for Improvement
Temporary Relaxation of DCR Mandate: Experts suggest that easing the DCR requirement temporarily could alleviate supply shortages and reduce costs, facilitating broader adoption of rooftop solar installations.
Enhancement of Digital Infrastructure: Addressing technical issues within the PM Surya Ghar portal is crucial to streamline the application and verification processes for installers and consumers.
Administrative Reforms: Implementing stricter adherence to procedural timelines and improving coordination among various administrative bodies can expedite project approvals and installations.
While the PM Surya Ghar Yojana has not failed outright, these challenges have significantly impeded its effectiveness. Addressing the above issues is essential to realize the scheme's goal of widespread residential solar adoption.
