This blog will break down the scheme, eligibility, process, and how Juyal Solar helps make it all seamless — from application to plant setup.

You don’t even need to use the electricity yourself — the power goes to the state, and you get paid for every unit your plant generates.

Step-by-Step Process

At Juyal Solar, we simplify the entire process into just 3 broad steps:

1. Application & Eligibility Check

We evaluate your land, location, and documents to ensure eligibility. Then, we file the SSY application on your behalf — including land registration, revenue records, and identification.

2. Sanction & Setup

Once your project is sanctioned:

  • We take care of layout planning

     

  • Complete fencing and site preparation

     

  • Procure all government-approved components

     

  • Begin installation & grid connection

     

3. Commissioning & Payments

Once your plant goes live, power is fed to the UPCL grid. Every month, you receive a direct bank credit based on units produced.

Financials: What You Get

  • For a 100kW plant, average monthly earnings: ₹35,000–45,000

     

  • Annual earning potential: ₹4.5–5.5 lakhs

     

  • Return on investment in 3–5 years

     

  • Subsidy & financing options available through tie-ups

     

Real Example: A 240kW Plant in Pauri

Recently, Juyal Solar helped a farmer in Pauri district install a 240kW solar plant under SSY. We:

✔️ Took care of fencing, application, and DISCOM approvals
✔️ Completed installation in 30 days
✔️ Now generates ₹1.2–1.4 lakhs in monthly income
✔️ Has become a model project in the region

“I didn’t think land that wasn’t growing anything could earn me lakhs every month. Juyal Solar made it all possible.”
