State-specific · UP

UP has more PM Surya Ghar enrolments than any other state. Solar coming on at scale; battery is the missing layer.

Kanpur leather and Agra MSMEs run heavy DG today. Lucknow and Noida residential and small-commercial pay both for tariff and outage frequency. Varanasi and tier-3 cities see the longest summer cuts — residential BESS demand peaks there.

Uttar Pradesh · frequently asked

Local questions, answered.

Will the BESS run an entire home through a 10-hour outage?

Depends on load. The IZ-9K-1P (18 kWh) runs a 2–3 BHK home (lights, fans, fridge, 1 AC, router, TV) for 6–8 hours of typical evening load. For longer cuts in Varanasi / Allahabad area, we recommend the IZ-9K-3P (18 kWh + three-phase) with solar to recharge during the brief grid windows.

How does PM Surya Ghar combine with the battery?

PM Surya Ghar pays up to ₹78,000 for a 3 kW rooftop solar install. The Infozeb battery is purchased separately. Most UP residential customers do both at once: solar + battery, claiming the ₹78,000 on the solar side and using NBFC EMI on the battery.

Is the BESS resilient against UP's voltage fluctuations?

Yes — Infozeb PCS has wide-input tolerance (±15% nominal). Brown-outs and voltage sags don't damage the battery; the EMS isolates the load to battery the moment voltage drops outside the safe band.
