Learn more →Why install solar in Ahmedabad?
Ahmedabad receives strong year-round irradiance and rising DISCOM tariffs, making rooftop solar one of the fastest payback investments for homes and businesses. Housing societies can offset common-area loads; factories in GIDC estates match high daytime consumption with behind-the-meter generation; and corporates along SG Highway use solar to cut Scope 2 emissions while lowering operating cost. GALILEO handles GUVNL net-metering paperwork, structural assessment and MNRE ALMM-compliant equipment selection — so your system is financeable from day one.
PM Surya Ghar & subsidies in Ahmedabad
Eligible residential customers can claim central subsidy up to ₹78,000 under PM Surya Ghar via pmsuryaghar.gov.in. GALILEO registers your application, coordinates DISCOM technical feasibility, installs as an empaneled vendor and submits completion documents for direct bank transfer. Commercial and industrial clients benefit from accelerated depreciation (40% in year one) and GUVNL net-metering that credits surplus units at applicable rates.
How much rooftop space do you need?
A 1 kW system needs roughly 80–100 sq ft of shadow-free south-facing roof; 3 kW needs 240–300 sq ft; 5 kW needs 400–500 sq ft. Optimal tilt in Ahmedabad is 15–18°. We run 3D shadow analysis before design so your yield model reflects real roof geometry — not a generic catalogue size.
