🎯 Our approach

Every roof is different. So is every electricity bill.

Orientation, shade, roof material, sanctioned load, and how the building is actually used through the day all change what a good solar system looks like. We don't sell a fixed panel count - we start on-site, measure how your property runs, and design around that.

  • Site assessment first. We check your roof orientation, shading, structure and existing load before we ever talk numbers.
  • System design around real usage. A home that runs air-conditioners all afternoon needs a different design than an office that shuts by 7pm.
  • Our own team on the roof. Installation is supervised directly by JK Solar City, start to finish - not handed off to a subcontractor.
  • Care that continues. Commissioning, monitoring support and lifecycle maintenance are part of the package, not an add-on.
⚙️ How it works

From sunlight to your savings, in just 5 steps.

The same physics, engineered around your building.

1

Sunlight

Solar energy reaches every roof, every day - the raw input that costs you nothing.

2

PV panels

Panels on your roof convert that sunlight directly into DC electricity.

3

Inverter

The inverter converts that DC power into clean AC power your building can use.

4

Building

That power runs your lights, fans, air-conditioners and equipment directly.

5

Bill savings

Your EB bill drops dramatically as you generate your own clean power and export surplus to the grid.

💡 Solutions for every property

Built around how your property actually runs.

Residential homes
Power your family's lights, fans, air-conditioners, kitchen appliances - and an EV charger, if you have one - straight off your own roof.
1 to 6 kW typical Sized to your household's load
Apartment communities
Cut the society's common-area electricity bill - corridor lighting, lifts, pumps and security systems - and improve overall building performance.
5 to 100 kW Designed to measured common-area load
Offices & corporates
Daytime-heavy loads - lighting, computers and business equipment - line up well with solar generation, which lowers your operating cost through the year.
10 to 100 kW Designed to your measured load
Institutions
Schools, colleges and other institutional campuses treat their roof as a long-term energy asset, planned around future consumption - not just today's bill.
Custom Designed to measured load

These are illustrative starting ranges. Your final system size and savings depend on a real site assessment - use the calculator for a rough first number.

Illustrative guide

Property / loadPossible starting range
Smaller homes1 to 2 kW
Medium homes3 to 4 kW
Larger homes5 to 6 kW
Apartment common areas5 to 100 kW
Commercial / institutionaldesigned to load

Final capacity depends on roof orientation, shade, equipment and how the building is used.

Illustrative estimate based on the ranges above, a 92% reduction on your EB bill, ~1,400 kWh/kW/year of Chennai sunshine, ~100 sq ft of roof per kW, and standard grid emission factors. Actual system size, cost, savings and subsidy eligibility are confirmed after a free on-site assessment.

❓ Common questions

What people usually ask before saying yes.

Does solar still work on cloudy or monsoon days?
Yes, though output drops. Panels still generate power from diffused daylight, just less of it than on a clear day. Chennai gets strong sun for most of the year, which is what the "possible starting range" figures above already account for.
Is my roof suitable? What about RCC vs. sheet roofs?
Most RCC terraces and metal sheet roofs can both take solar, with different mounting structures. Shade from trees or neighbouring buildings matters more than roof material. That's exactly what the on-site assessment checks before we design anything.
How long does installation actually take?
A typical home system is usually mounted and wired within a few days on-site, once materials are ready. Larger apartment or commercial jobs take longer depending on system size and any structural work needed. We'll give you a firm timeline after the site assessment.
How does the government subsidy actually work?
Residential rooftop solar can qualify for a total government subsidy of up to ₹1,00,000, including ₹78,000 from the central government and ₹22,000 from the state government, depending on system size and location. We help you with the paperwork and application as part of the process, so you're not chasing it alone.
What happens after installation - is there any maintenance?
Panels need occasional cleaning and a periodic check of connections and inverter health. Our AMC (available up to 5 years) covers this, plus monitoring support, so small issues get caught before they cost you generation.
