Rooftop Solar for Indian Homes — Cut Bills, Earn from Net Metering

Rooftop solar for Indian homes by Arkahub

Rooftop solar lets you generate your own electricity, reduce your monthly electricity bill by 80–100%, and earn bill credits by exporting excess power back to the grid through net metering.

TL;DR

Arkahub installs MNRE-approved rooftop solar systems in Bangalore and Hyderabad with guaranteed payback, 30-year performance warranty, and free 60 months quarterly maintenance. Most homes pay back in 4–5 years.

How Rooftop Solar Works for Indian Homes

Solar panels installed on your roof capture sunlight and convert it to DC electricity. An inverter converts this to AC power — the same your home appliances run on. During the day, your home runs on solar. Any excess power is exported to the electricity grid through net metering, and your DISCOM credits those units against your future bills. At night, you draw from the grid as normal.

For homes that want protection during power cuts, Arkahub offers hybrid systems with battery storage — excess solar charges the battery during the day, and you draw from the battery at night or during outages.

Which Rooftop Solar System Is Right for You?

Arkahub offers three mounting structures designed for different roof types and aesthetics:

ArkaCore (Floor-mounted)

Best for flat terraces with open space. Panels mounted on a low-profile ground frame on the roof surface. Most affordable structure.

ArkaSky (Elevated)

Panels raised 3–5 feet above the roof surface on a steel frame. Creates usable shade beneath. Ideal for terraces used for recreation, drying clothes, or utility activities. Arkahub best-seller.

ArkaScape (Gazebo)

Solar panels integrated into a pergola/gazebo structure. Doubles as an aesthetic outdoor feature. Popular for villas and independent houses with garden spaces.

All three structures are compatible with on-grid, hybrid, and off-grid system configurations. Arkahub's site survey determines the right structure for your roof.
