As of December 4, 2025, Karnataka has recorded 14,151 new rooftop solar installations under the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana — benefiting 22,313 households across the state. This surge underscores mounting public embrace of rooftop solar plants under the national clean-energy initiative.

According to data shared in Parliament by Pralhad Joshi, as of October 31, 2025, Karnataka’s total renewable energy capacity stands at 25,675.39 MW, which is 10.24% of India’s total renewable capacity of 250,643.45 MW. The rooftop surge under Surya Ghar strengthens Karnataka’s contribution to national renewable targets.

The renewed momentum is powered by measures under the scheme — including concessional collateral-free loans at 6% interest, simplified online approval-to-subsidy flow, auto load enhancement up to 10 kW, and an expanded vendor ecosystem. Over 20,000 vendors are reportedly empanelled, and nearly 1.5 lakh technicians/workers trained, making installation more accessible and efficient.

For homeowners and small consumers, these developments under PM Surya Ghar translate into real benefits: lower electricity bills, energy independence, and a step toward a greener future. With the current pace, Karnataka’s rooftop solar growth is expected to accelerate — a trend that companies like OrnateSolar are ready to support with complete rooftop solar solutions, subsidy guidance, and post-installation services.
