Q & A

What is the National Portal 2.0 about?

The National Portal 2.0 is a newly launched platform, designed for managing solar rooftop applications, where users can register, apply for solar panel installation, and select vendors for the installation process.

What is the first step in registering a consumer on the portal?

The first step involves entering the consumer's mobile number, followed by verifying the number through an OTP (One Time Password).

Why is the consumer's name being asked after the mobile number?

In the new system, the portal asks for the consumer's name because it no longer fetches consumer details directly from the electricity bill, unlike the previous system.

Is the email address compulsory for registration?

No, the email address is not compulsory for registration. However, it can be entered for communication purposes.

What was the issue with location selection in the portal?

What should users avoid during the registration process?

Users should avoid clicking on unnecessary options such as 'Give up subsidy,' as it could cause confusion, particularly if the consumer does need the subsidy.

Is uploading the electricity bill mandatory for the application?

No, uploading the electricity bill is not mandatory for the application. However, it is recommended to upload the bill for better validation.

What is the 'Vendor Selection' step in the process?

The 'Vendor Selection' step involves choosing a vendor from the list to install the solar panels. The user can select a vendor based on their preferences and rates.

What happens after the vendor is selected?

Once the vendor is selected, the consumer needs to accept the order, provide their bank details, and upload the agreement for the process to move forward.

What does the system indicate once the application is successful?
