2 kW vs 5 kW Solar System: Which Is Right for Your Home?

A 2 kW system suits compact homes with lower consumption, typically offsetting bills in the ₹1,500–₹2,500 range. It needs roughly 160 sq ft of usable roof area.

A 5 kW system is the sweet spot for many Indian families with AC usage and monthly bills of ₹4,000–₹6,000. It generates around 600 units per month in Bhopal's solar conditions.

Oversizing without consumption to match can limit net metering benefits. Luxsun's engineers size systems from your last 12 months of bills and future load plans such as EV charging.
