Understanding MSEDCL Net Metering in Mumbai
When your housing society’s solar panels produce more electricity than you use, the extra power doesn’t go to waste — it’s sent back to the MSEDCL electricity grid.
MSEDCL keeps track of how much power you’ve given to the grid and how much you’ve used from it. At the end of the month, the extra units of solar energy you supplied are adjusted against your electricity bill.
That means
If you generate more than you consume, your bill amount becomes smaller.
If you use more power than you generate, you only pay for the difference.
Synergy Solar handles everything — from applying for the net meter, installing it, and connecting your solar system to the grid, to monitoring your monthly credits — so your society enjoys smooth, hassle-free solar savings.

FAQs – Solar for Housing Societies in Mumbai
How does MSEDCL net metering work for housing societies in Mumbai?
Under MSEDCL’s net metering system, any extra solar power generated by your society is sent to the grid. These units are recorded as credits, which reduce your next month’s electricity bill — helping you save without any direct payment from MSEDCL.
How much rooftop space is required for a solar setup in a Mumbai housing society?
Every 1 kW of solar requires around 80–100 sq. ft of clear rooftop space. A typical 25 kW system for a medium-sized apartment building usually needs about 2,000–2,500 sq. ft.
What is the cost of installing solar for housing societies in Mumbai?
The average cost of housing society solar in Mumbai is between ₹45,000 and ₹60,000 per kW, depending on the panel type, structure, and inverter capacity.

Yes. As long as your rooftop is structurally safe, shadow-free, and has enough space, solar panels can be installed on older or smaller housing societies with customized designs.
