The CEB Households Scheme 2026 authorises up to 10 kWp of solar panels, full self-consumption, battery autonomy, and surplus resale at Rs 3/kWh. An energy revolution within reach of every Mauritian household.
The CEB Households Scheme 2026 is a regulatory framework established by the Central Electricity Board of Mauritius to accelerate the residential energy transition. It allows households to install hybrid solar systems up to 10 kWp, cover their entire consumption through self-consumption, and sell unused energy back to the CEB grid at a guaranteed rate of Rs 3 per kWh. For the first time in Mauritius, the ordinary citizen becomes an active participant in their own energy production.
Enough power to cover the entire consumption of an average Mauritian household, even with air conditioning.
With a hybrid system, energy produced during the day is stored and used at night. Zero blackouts, zero dependence.
Unused energy is injected into the CEB grid and remunerated. Your installation becomes a citizen mini power plant.
Between self-consumption and resale credits, many households achieve a net zero or even negative CEB bill.
Every kWh produced by your roof replaces one produced from imported fuel oil. Your carbon footprint drops drastically.
A property equipped with a CEB-approved solar system sells better and faster on the Mauritian market.
Every kWh your installation injects into the CEB grid is credited to you at Rs 3. This rate is contractually guaranteed for the duration of the scheme. For a 10 kWp installation, the daily surplus can represent several tens of kWh, generating significant monthly credits that directly reduce your CEB bill.
Indicative example: a surplus of 15 kWh/day = Rs 45/day = Rs 1,350/month in CEB credits.
A SOLAR RENT technician analyses your consumption, roof, and current CEB connection.
Selection of optimal power, battery capacity, and hybrid configuration up to 10 kWp.
SOLAR RENT prepares and submits the full administrative file to the CEB. You do nothing.
Installation by SIGENERGY-certified technicians, official grid connection, and bidirectional meter activation.
Real-time monitoring through the app. Resale credits appear directly on your monthly CEB bill.
