Why Kanpur Is Ideal for Rooftop Solar
Kanpur's industrial heritage means many properties have large, flat RCC rooftops perfect for solar panel installation. The city receives 5.5 peak sun hours daily, and with KESCO electricity rates among the highest in UP, the payback period for a rooftop system is typically under 3 years.
Kanpur's commercial establishments — factories, warehouses, and shops along GT Road and Industrial Area — can benefit from 10-50kW commercial systems that drastically reduce operating costs. Many Kanpur businesses have already switched to solar to offset rising power tariffs.
Net Metering with KESCO in Kanpur
KESCO (Kanpur Electricity Supply Company) is the local electricity distribution company for Kanpur Nagar. KESCO supports bi-directional net metering, allowing you to export surplus solar energy to the grid and receive bill credits at the applicable tariff rate.
BL Solar Solutions handles the entire KESCO net metering application — from technical feasibility report to meter installation coordination. The process typically takes 2-3 weeks after system installation. We also assist with KESCO load enhancement if your existing connection needs upgrading for a solar system.
