Solar Maximises Savings During Peak Tariff Hours (TOD)

Time-of-Day (TOD) tariffs charge different rates for electricity consumed at different times. Most DISCOMs in India charge 20–50% more during peak hours (9 AM–6 PM) — exactly when solar panels generate maximum power. This means your solar system saves you at the highest possible tariff rate.

Peak Hours
9:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Higher tariff — solar generates maximum
Off-Peak Hours
6:00 PM – 9:00 AM
Lower tariff — draw from grid when cheaper
Gujarat TOD Tariff Rates

PGVCL / UGVCL / MGVCL / DGVCL

Peak Hours RateRs. 7.50–10.00/unit (HT consumers, peak hours)
Off-Peak RateRs. 4.50–6.50/unit (HT consumers, off-peak)
Peak Surcharge+20% to +50% on base tariff during peak hours

LT commercial consumers in Gujarat face peak tariff of Rs. 6.50–8.50/unit

Why TOD + Solar = Maximum Savings

  • Solar generates maximum power from 10 AM to 3 PM — squarely in peak tariff window
  • Every unit of solar replaces a unit that would cost peak-rate Rs. 7–10 from the grid
  • Net metering exports are credited at prevailing tariff — higher value during peak hours
  • Businesses consuming 50,000+ units/month can save Rs. 1.50–3.00/unit more vs. off-peak consumers
  • HT industrial consumers with TOD meters achieve payback 12–18 months faster
Example: Large Industrial Unit

Monthly consumption: 1,00,000 units

Solar generation (peak hours)40,000 units during peak hours (9am–5pm)
Extra saving vs. off-peakRs. 3.00/unit extra saving vs off-peak/unit
Additional monthly benefitRs. 1,20,000/month vs non-TOD scenario
Additional annual benefitRs. 14,40,000/year additional benefit

Captive Solar: Regulatory Framework & Open Access Rules

Understand how the Electricity Act 2003 and CEA Amendment 2022 impact solar industrial projects, ground mounted solar for industry, and captive solar investments. Enersol, one of the trusted solar EPC companies in Ahmedabad, helps businesses navigate regulations and build compliant systems for reliable solar power for industrial use.

Green Open Access Rules (CEA Amendment 2022)

Minimum Load: 100 kW (reduced from 1 MW by CEA Amendment 2022)
Approval Timeline: 15 days — deemed approved if DISCOM doesn't respond

Open Access Charges Breakdown

Wheeling Charges
Rs. 0.50–1.50/unit for using the distribution network to wheel solar power

Varies by state and voltage level

Cross-Subsidy Surcharge (CSS)
Rs. 0.80–2.00/unit

Gujarat waives CSS for green open access

Transmission Charges
Rs. 0.30–0.80/unit for inter-state wheeling

Intra-state solar usually exempt

Banking Charges
2–4% of banked energy as facility charge for storing generation credits

Credits valid for 1 year

Group Captive Model — Step-by-Step Setup

Multiple consumers jointly own a solar plant through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV). Each consumer gets power proportional to their equity stake.

26% aggregate equity by the consumer group
Minimum equity by consumer group
Power consumption must be proportional to equity share (±10% tolerance per CERC)
Power ∝ equity stake
  1. 1Form SPV (Special Purpose Vehicle) — typically a Private Limited Company
  2. 2Execute Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) between SPV and each consumer
  3. 3Apply for captive status with State Electricity Regulatory Commission (SERC)
  4. 4File Form VI with DISCOM declaring captive consumption intent
  5. 5Annual compliance certificate to be filed with DISCOM

Captive Solar Advantages

Exempt from cross-subsidy surcharge in most states
Lower wheeling charges than open access
No requirement for trading licence
Banking facility available (up to 12 months in most states)

Net Metering: Sell Excess Power to the Grid

Net metering is a government-approved system that allows homeowners with solar panels for home to export excess electricity to the grid and earn credits on their electricity bills. When your residential solar system generates more power than you use, the extra electricity is sent to the grid, helping you maximize savings and make the most of your solar electricity for home.

Benefits of Net Metering

  • Sell excess power at retail tariff rates
  • Credits roll over monthly (annual settlement)
  • Bidirectional meter tracks import/export
  • Reduces electricity bills to near zero
  • No battery storage needed

Application Process

  1. 1Apply online via state DISCOM portal
  2. 2Technical feasibility study (usually free for <10kW)
  3. 3DISCOM approval within 15-30 days
  4. 4Installation by empaneled vendor
  5. 5DISCOM inspection and meter installation
  6. 6Commissioning and grid connection
