TPREL, BOB sign MOU to Facilitate Financing for Residential Customers

Tata Power Renewable Energy (TPREL), a subsidiary of The Tata Power Company and a leader in India鈥檚 renewable energy sector, and Bank of Baroda, one of India鈥檚 leading public sector banks have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for financing of residential rooftop solar power systems. The MoU will facilitate financing options for residential customers under the Pradhan Mantri Surya Ghar Yojana (PMSGY). The collaboration will leverage on the wide branch network and financing capabilities of Bank of Baroda and the market leadership and dealer network of Tata Power Renewable Energy, enabling seamless sourcing and loan processing for customers. This strategic partnership is set to boost the adoption of rooftop solar systems across the country by providing affordable and accessible financing, thereby supporting India鈥檚 transition to renewable energy.

By providing access to affordable, hassle-free financing options, Bank of Baroda and Tata Power Renewable Energy will enable Indian households to adopt sustainable energy solutions and contribute to a cleaner, greener future. Under the MoU, applicants can avail loan amounts up to ?6 lakh at an attractive interest rate starting at 7 per cent p.a., with both fixed and floating rate of interest options available.

Under the PM Surya Ghar Yojana, customers installing residential rooftop solar systems with capacities of up to 3 kW can avail loans up to Rs 2 lakh with no income documentation required. The scheme requires only a 10 per cent margin contribution and offers an attractive interest rate of 7 per cent p.a. The loans are collateral-free and come with a flexible repayment tenure of up to 10 years, making solar installations affordable for households.

For larger installations ranging from above 3 kW and up to 10 kW, customers can avail loans of up to Rs 6 lakh under the regular scheme. These loans require a margin money contribution of 20 per cent. Bank of Baroda鈥檚 亚博体育官网首页 Loan customers will enjoy special concessional interest rates ranging from 9.15 per cent to 11 per cent p.a. For non-亚博体育官网首页 Loan customers, interest rates will range from 10.15 per cent to 12 per cent p.a. The loans are collateral-free with a maximum repayment tenure of up to 10 years.

Under the Pradhan Mantri Surya Ghar Yojana, residential consumers installing rooftop solar systems are eligible for government subsidies, significantly reducing the upfront cost of installation. For solar systems up to 2 kW, customers can avail a subsidy covering up to 60 per cent of the benchmark cost, while for systems between 2 kW and 3 kW, the subsidy covers 40 per cent of the benchmark cost. Installations above 3 kW receive a fixed subsidy for the first 3 kW, with additional capacity receiving support as per scheme guidelines. These subsidies, combined with affordable financing options, make rooftop solar more accessible, helping households lower electricity bills while contributing to India's clean energy transition.
