UGVCL Solar Net Metering — Export Rate

Under net metering, UGVCL consumers with rooftop solar systems can export surplus electricity to the grid and receive credit. UGVCL, along with DGVCL, MGVCL and PGVCL, operates under one common GERC tariff and net metering order — the same rates and rules apply regardless of which of the 4 Gujarat DISCOMs serves your area.

Net metering settlement for UGVCL is monthly, per GERC regulations, as per GERC (Gujarat Electricity Regulatory Commission) regulations.

How Solar Saves Money Under UGVCL Tariffs

For a household consuming 300–400 units per month in the UGVCL area, a 3 kW solar system can offset 300–360 units per month (25 kWh/day average). At current UGVCL tariffs, this can save a meaningful portion of the electricity bill each month, depending on which consumption slab your usage falls into and your generation profile.
