Rajasthan Net Metering Apply Online 2026: Complete DRE-PMT Portal Guide
Rajasthan's rooftop solar net-metering application workflow is transitioning from the older SSO/UWP environment to the DRE-PMT platform. Homeowners and solar vendors should use the current officially designated application channel, retain existing application records and complete the required DISCOM commissioning formalities.

What Is DRE-PMT?
DRE-PMT means Distributed Renewable Energy Project Monitoring Tool. The Rajasthan platform is designed for distributed renewable-energy project processing and monitoring, including rooftop solar and related vendor and DISCOM workflows. Official login: https://drenergy.rajasthan.gov.in/login
What Happened to SSO/UWP?
The older Unified Solar Rooftop Web Portal (UWP) was previously used for rooftop solar processing. The DRE-PMT rollout introduces a new state-level environment. The old website may remain reachable, which does not mean it is still the correct route for new applications. Confirm the designated route and avoid duplicate submissions.
Who Needs Net Metering?
Eligible residential, commercial and industrial consumers proposing grid-connected rooftop solar may need the applicable DISCOM approval and metering arrangement. PM Surya Ghar subsidy processing and DISCOM net-metering/commissioning are related but distinct procedures. Eligibility depends on current Rajasthan rules and consumer category.
Documents and Information to Prepare
Keep the latest electricity bill and consumer number, service address, DISCOM/subdivision, sanctioned load, proposed module and inverter capacities, vendor details, technical specifications, electrical diagram and safety documents where required, and any earlier application acknowledgement.
Step 1: Open the Official DRE-PMT Portal
Check the government domain before entering credentials.
Step 2: Select the Appropriate Authorised Login
Use the consumer, vendor or other authorised access path shown by the live portal. Existing vendors should check migration/account-access instructions before attempting fresh registration.
Step 3: Identify the Consumer and DISCOM
Verify the electricity consumer number, name, address, DISCOM, subdivision and application category. Incorrect identification can delay verification.
Step 4: Select the Rooftop Solar or Net-Metering Workflow
Open the applicable service available for your account. Menu labels and sequences can change as the portal is updated; this guide is not a transcription of the live interface.
Step 5: Enter Project Details
Provide system capacity, inverter information and other requested technical particulars. Ensure the information matches the installation and DISCOM documentation.
Step 6: Upload Supporting Documents
Upload complete and readable documents, and verify consistency of names, capacities and account details.
Step 7: Review and Submit
Check every entry before submission and save the generated application acknowledgement or reference number.
Step 8: Track Status and Resolve Queries
Monitor the application, reply to deficiency notices and retain copies of communication. Submitted does not mean approved.
Step 9: Complete Metering and Commissioning
Follow applicable technical checks, meter testing, agreement, inspection and commissioning requirements. Do not assume electricity export is authorised before the relevant process is completed.
Existing Applications on UWP
Do not start a duplicate application simply because an earlier reference is not displayed in the new dashboard. Verify whether it has migrated and whether the DISCOM requires any further action. Preserve old acknowledgements and correspondence.
Common Application Mistakes
Common problems include wrong consumer details, capacity mismatches, unreadable documents, wrong subsidy/non-subsidy category, duplicate filings and failure to respond to portal remarks.
How Long Does Net Metering Take?
Timelines depend on the applicable regulation, activity and completeness. Rajasthan Integrated Clean Energy Policy 2024 specifies activity-specific periods for certain steps; these should not be combined into a guaranteed total turnaround time. Confirm prevailing requirements with the relevant DISCOM.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the old UWP website closed?
It may remain reachable; confirm the currently authorised route for new applications.
Must existing vendors register again?
Do not assume universal fresh registration without official instructions.
Can non-subsidy consumers apply?
Eligible non-subsidy rooftop solar projects may follow applicable DISCOM and regulatory procedures.
Is submitting enough to export electricity?
No. Applicable approval, metering and commissioning formalities must be completed.
