The Haryana government provides subsidy of up to 75% on installation of new solar tubes.

Agriculture is a large and important part of the Indian economy, requiring electricity for many irrigation-related activities. Farmers often face huge electricity bills, especially if they use water pumps that run on fossil fuels. This causes great damage to the environment. To solve this problem, the Haryana government is providing 75% subsidy to farmers for solar panel tube wells through a new scheme.

Solar powered pumps work without harming or polluting the environment. Its use also reduces farmers’ dependence on the electricity grid, which will reduce electricity bills and farmers will not have to deal with these high bills. Agricultural development is promoted by contributing to sustainable agricultural practices using modern technology.

Now up to 75% subsidy is available on the tube well of solar panels

This plan was started by Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar. Through this scheme, farmers in the state will get the option of tube wells for solar panels. It is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to pumps powered by electricity and fossil fuels. Under this scheme of the state government, 75% subsidy is offered to farmers for tube wells for solar panels. This will not only reduce the burden of farming on farmers, but also increase their income and reduce costs.

Registration procedure

The state government has said that to avail this scheme, farmers will have to register online. Before this, farmers are getting subsidy on solar energy for irrigation under the Pradhan Mantri Kusum Yojana. The use of solar pumps is important to meet agricultural irrigation needs. This initiative can also solve irrigation-related problems faced by farmers.

There are many benefits of this new arrangement that you should know about

Well powered by solar energy, solar panel tubes use solar panels to generate electricity, which powers the solar pump. This eliminates the need for pumps powered by fossil fuels or grid power. Solar power plants operate without emitting pollutants, allowing the replacement of pumps that run on fossil fuels that heavily pollute the environment. Farmers can avail subsidies from both the state and central governments to install solar pumps, which will provide them with financial support to invest in solar pumps.

The use of solar pumps can reduce electricity bills from the grid, providing financial benefits to farmers. Farmers can also sell the extra electricity generated by solar panels installed on solar panel pumps to the nearest electricity distributor. This makes farmers economically stronger through solar energy. These benefits make solar tube wells a sustainable and viable option for farmers in agricultural operations.
