Net Metering in Lucknow — How It Works

Net Metering in Lucknow — How It Works

How surplus solar power is exported to the grid, and how Golden ACS handles the DISCOM application for you.

Quick Overview

What is net metering?

Net metering lets a solar system export surplus electricity to the grid and draw power back when needed, with your DISCOM billing you only for the net units consumed over a billing cycle. It's what allows a grid-connected (on-grid or hybrid) solar system to actually reduce your electricity bill.

  • Requires DISCOM approval & a net meter
  • Applies to on-grid and hybrid systems
  • Golden ACS handles the application
  • Billing is based on net units consumed

Process

How net metering is set up for your property.

01

Application

Net metering application submitted to your DISCOM after installation.

02

Inspection

DISCOM inspects the installation for compliance.

03

Bidirectional net meter installed by the DISCOM.

04

Government / regulatory information: Subsidy amounts and net metering rules are set by the Ministry of New & Renewable Energy (MNRE) and your local DISCOM, and can change. This page reflects our understanding as of August 2026 — always confirm current terms at pmsuryaghar.gov.in before applying. Company service information above (surveys, installation, AMC) is provided directly by Golden ACS.
FAQ

Net metering, answered.

01How does net metering work?+

Net metering lets you export surplus solar power to the grid and draw power back when you need it, with your DISCOM billing you only for the net units consumed. We handle the net metering application and documentation with your DISCOM.

02On-grid vs hybrid solar — what's the difference?+

On-grid systems connect directly to the electricity grid and are the most common, cost-effective option where grid power is reliable. Hybrid systems add battery backup, so you retain power during outages, at extra cost. We help you pick the right fit during your site survey.

03Is Golden ACS a solar dealer or an installation company?+

Golden ACS operates as a solar installation and EPC company, handling site assessment, system design, installation, commissioning and related support for homes, businesses and institutions. For product-only, wholesale, dealership or distribution enquiries, please contact our commercial team separately.
