Gross Metering

Gross Metering Solar Plants

All energy the plant produces is exported to the grid through a dedicated generation meter and paid for at an agreed feed-in tariff, while your own consumption is billed as usual. It turns an idle roof or parcel of land into a steady income stream.

How it works

How gross metering works

  1. 01

    Solar plant

    Rooftop or ground-mounted array sized to your available area.

  2. 02

    Inverters

    Convert and synchronise output with the grid at the connection point.

  3. 03

    Gross meter

    A dedicated meter records 100% of the energy the plant generates.

  4. 04

    DISCOM grid

    Every unit is paid at the agreed tariff; your own usage is billed separately.

Why choose it

FAQ

Gross Metering, explained.

Net metering or gross metering — which is better for me?

If you consume most of your power yourself, net metering usually saves more because every solar unit offsets a unit bought at the full retail tariff. Gross metering suits sites with low consumption or owners who want a clean income stream. We model both before you decide.

How is the feed-in tariff decided?

Tariffs are set under the applicable state regulations and your agreement with the utility. We walk you through the current applicable rate during feasibility.
