A 1 kW rooftop solar system in Indore generates about 4 units a day, 122 units a month and 1,459 units a year. It uses about 2 panels of 545 W and needs roughly 90 sq ft of shadow-free roof. It qualifies for ₹30,000 PM Surya Ghar subsidy, bringing a typical price of ₹68,000–₹78,000 down to about ₹38,000–₹48,000. For a property using 80–150 units a month, it saves around ₹882 a month and pays back in about 3.9 years.

Small flats and independent homes with a monthly bill under about ₹1,000, or anyone who wants to start small and expand later.

## What it can run

- Lights and fans for a 2BHK
- One refrigerator
- TV, Wi-Fi router and phone charging
- A water purifier and mixer

## Notes

- A 1 kW system uses two modern 540–580 W modules and needs roughly 90 sq ft of shadow-free roof.
- It qualifies for ₹30,000 central subsidy under PM Surya Ghar — the highest subsidy per kW of any size.
- Choose an inverter one size up (2 kW or 3 kW) if you already know you will expand; it avoids replacing the inverter later.

## FAQ

### Is 1 kW solar enough for a home in Indore?

A 1 kW system generates about 120 units a month in Indore — enough for a home that uses 100–150 units, typically a 1BHK or 2BHK without air-conditioning. Homes with an AC or a large family usually need 3 kW or more.

### Can a 1 kW system run an AC?

Not reliably. A 1.5-ton inverter AC draws 1.2–1.8 kW while running. On an on-grid system it will still work because the grid supplies the shortfall, but the solar will only offset a part of the AC's consumption.
