"Our objective is to provide the best possible services to rooftop solar consumers. The monthly settlement system ensures that bill settlements are completed on time with complete transparency," he said. The CMD said rooftop solar consumers were playing an important role in strengthening the state's renewable energy sector by supplying surplus electricity to the grid. Lotheti said APSPDCL had instructed field-level officials to ensure that rooftop solar consumers did not face inconvenience in billing or settlement. The utility, he said, was further strengthening its billing, net metering and monthly settlement systems in view of the increasing adoption of rooftop solar.
