The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) mandated that all original equipment manufacturers enlisted for the supply of inverters under the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana integrate inverter communication devices with the PM Surya Ghar portal. The move comes in the background of inverter communication devices transmitting data to servers outside India, potentially risking grid disruptions. The inverters must also be connected to software managed by the MNRE or any other agency designated by it. The integration of inverter communication devices with the portal will be rolled out for the testing phase from September 1, 2025.
