The 2 kW breakdown for a Margao home
What it powers: a full small household: fridge, TV, washing machine, fans and lights together, with an AC run occasionally in peak summer.
Roof you need: about 180–200 sq ft of shadow-free space. Panels are mounted on a raised GI structure, so you keep usable terrace below.
Money over 25 years: beyond the 4-year break-even, the system keeps producing against tariffs that rise every year. Panels carry 25-year performance warranties; the inverter is the one mid-life replacement (around year 10–12).
Paperwork: your installer files for net metering with Goa Electricity Dept after you sign; the subsidy runs through the national portal and reaches your account after commissioning — the full process.

What subsidy do I get on a 2 kW system in Margao?
₹60,000 under PM Surya Ghar (₹30,000/kW up to 2 kW, capped at ₹78,000 for 3 kW+). Credited to your bank account after Goa Electricity Dept inspects and commissions the system.
What appliances can a 2 kW system run in Margao?
a full small household: fridge, TV, washing machine, fans and lights together, with an AC run occasionally in peak summer.
How long does installation take in Margao?
On-site work takes 1–3 days once the quote is signed. The full journey — Goa Electricity Dept feasibility approval, net meter installation and subsidy payout — typically runs 4–10 weeks.
When does solar perform best and worst in Margao?
Margao follows the usual Indian pattern: the strongest sun arrives in March to May, and generation falls away through the southwest monsoon into June and July. Size on the annual average and those weeks will read as underperformance, so check the monsoon months against your own expectation before you sign. A 2 kW system is sized on an annual average of 236 units a month, so expect more than that through March to May and less during the dip.
