Why Alappuzha
Alappuzha — Backwaters, Sun, and Smart Solar ROI
Alappuzha (Alleppey) is famous for its backwaters and rice fields — and it's also an excellent solar location. With 5.1 peak sun hours daily and wide exposure to open skies, most rooftops in Alappuzha are ideal for solar.
Rising KSEB tariffs affect every household and business here. With PM Surya Ghar subsidy of up to ₹78,000, many Alappuzha homeowners can install a 3 kW system for around ₹1.1–1.4 lakh — recovering the investment in 3–4 years.
FGE Solar serves the full district including Cherthala, Chengannur, Mavelikkara, and Kayamkulam. Whether you own a coastal home, rice mill, or tourism property, we offer customized solar solutions.
