SOLARWHIN

An initiative of the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy for monitoring the

installation of Solar Water Heater under JNNSM. The online web application

namely SOLARWHIN was developed by National Informatics Centre in

association with MNRE. This application was inaugurated by our Honorable

Minister Dr. Farooq Abdullah on 23/08/2012. In order to submit the reports

to Ministry now this application is made compulsory.



Always visit Notice page whenever you login to the system



Guidelines for Entering the Solar Water Heater Installations

Ministry has developed a web based application system for

collecting the details of each and every installation of Solar Water

Heaters in India under Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission

(JNNSM). The application successfully implemented in the case of

Channel Partners (CPs). Ministry now wants this is to be

implemented for programme administrators like SNAs, NHB etc.

The Ministry will provide login credentials for each programme

administrators and they are supposed to enter the details of each

and every customer correctly.

Assumption: It is assumed that the programme administrators

are issued sanction orders from the MNRE corresponding to their

proposals submitted to the Ministry.[ If not please contact MNRE]

The customer installation is to be entered corresponding to a

particular sanction received from the Ministry. The data will enter

after installing the system at customer’s premises.

For any technical help related to the application, please contact

[email protected] or [011-24361891 ] and for any help related to

subject, rule or format or anything related solar water heater

subsidy procedure please contact [email protected] or Mrs.

Veena Sinha (Director) [email protected]

The website can be accessed through any browser (preferably

Mozilla Firefox) with the following address.

You can access the SOLARWHIN by any of the following.

1. http://mnre.gov.in and click on the SOLARWHIN icon in the left side.

2. http://mnre.gov.in/solarwhin

mailto:[email protected]



http://mnre.gov.in/

http://mnre.gov.in/solarwhin



Some of the conditions implied in the application

The date of entry to a particular sanction is limited and is displayed at the

time of selection of sanction for customer entry

The system will not allow to enter the data after the last date

If a particular report submission is the last submission of that sanction

then system will not check whether you achieved minimum area required.

Without serial number application will not allow to generate final reports

The system will check whether sanctioned area is achieved for a particular

sanction and if it exceeds then it will not allow entering data on that

sanction.

A word of precaution

If your network is not stable or speed is very slow try to generate the

report when it is stable.

When you click

1. http://mnre.gov.in and click on the SOLARWHIN icon in the left side.

2. http://mnre.gov.in/solarwhin

Then you will see the following screen

Customer installation details System Panel / Tank Serial Number Upload system photos Sub System updation

When you select the customer installation details you will be prompted to the next screen as follows.

The screen shows the Agency Name and the Code allotted for

that agency. In the first screen you have to select the product



and sanction order, the number issued from the Ministry. Now

you have to select the manufacture or the system integrator/

dealer whose customer details you are going to enter. Then the

mobile number of the customer. Wherever there is mandatory

field is available then you have to select/type it. Otherwise

system will not allow you to proceed further. Mandatory fields are

shown as (*).

Here select the product,MNRE sanction, select the agency and

enter the mobile number. If this mobile number exists then the

system will display the customer code and name etc. By clicking

on the customer code you can modify the existing customer. If

you click customer code in the right side then that

customer will be deleted from the system. You will not

be able to retrieve it. If you select a customer whose final report

is submitted to MNRE, then it will be displayed however you are

not able to modify or delete any of the entries. If it is a fresh

entry then the following screen will come.



Parameter Description.

Customer Name :- Name of the customer

Address :- Full Address of the customer. You can press

enter key after each line.

If the installation address is same just click on that button

State :- By default it is selected to your state

District :- Select the District in which customer belongs to

Photo :- Passport size photo of the customer. It should

be either jpeg or PNG type and the size should be less than

50 kb. If the size is high reduce the size with some utility. A

utility is given in the menu. Go to the site and download and

install the application. It will reduce the size of the photo to

the desired size. Browse the photo and upload it. It is a

mandatory field.

Type of identity proof :- Select any one of the identity proof

from the list

Identity proof number:- Enter the number of the

corresponding proof say PAN – XXXXX9999X

Solar Water Heater Category :- Select one from the (drop

down)

Customer type :- Select the type of the customer type

(from the drop down)

Availing depreciation benefits: - This field will display if the

customer type is not domestic and select the answer

correspondingly.

Solar Water Heater type :- Here select type of the solar

water heater (from the drop down)n ETC or FPC

Case ETC

Enter Solar Water Heater Capacity in lpd



Now select the tube types from the drop down.

Here option has been given for selecting the

standard tubes. Its corresponding area is also

displayed. Now based on the capacity & tube type

computer will display number of tubes. If it is

correct you can accept or enter a different number

as required by you.

Case FPC

Enter Solar Water Heater Capacity in lpd

Based on the capacity Area per panel and number

of panel will be displayed automatically. If it is

correct you can accept or enter a different number

as required by you.

Number of tanks :- [ It is assumed that there can

be more than 1 tank in some systems]

Number of Systems: - It is assumed that there can be

more than one system for a customer. Here it may be noted

that Channel Partners are entering data with different

capacities together. It will generate wrong output. See the

following illustrations.

One customer got 5 systems say capacity 100 is 2, 200 is 1

and 500 is 2. Then you should enter the details as three

entry for a single customer as follows.

I. lpd = 100 No. of systems = 2

II. lpd = 200 No. of systems = 1

III. lpd = 500 No. of systems = 2

One should not enter lpd as 1400 & enter collector area

correspondingly. In other words same capacity systems should be

entered in a single entry. In this case even though the customer



has got 5 systems and want to consider as 1 system with

capacity 1400 lpd then you have to enter using subsystem option

as explained below.

How to enter subsystems in SOLARWHIN data entry

Subsystem is used to enter the split up capacity of a

system installed by using different capacities. Please see

the following examples.

1. Consider the following example.

One company installed a system with capacity

105000 lpd. It consists of 105 numbers of 1000lpd

systems. So when you enter the case it should enter as

follows.

Solar water heater total capacity: 105000lpd

Number of subsystems in the system: 105

…

…

After submission it will ask for the subsystem details for

entry. At that time you have to enter the details as

follows.



Corresponding to the actual capacity enter

=================================

Capacity Number Area

100

125

150

..

200

..

900

1000 105 Area

1050

..

6000

10000

The area entered should be matched with the total

number of pipes selected in the main screen.

If you enter the case as follows.




No. of systems = 105


This entry is wrong.

------------------------------------------------------------

Now consider the following example.


No. of systems = 1


Collector area = 12.50

Subsystem details

100 1 2.50

125

150 4 10.00

..

200

In other words the real capacity installed should be

entered in the capacity field.



Total Cost of the system with 5 years of AMC :- The

subsidy is calculated based on this amount.

Warranty: Here enter the warranty period provided to

customer in years

Annual Maintenance Contract :- AMC period given to

customer in years

Select the manufacturer of the Panel / Tube from the drop

down

Invoice Number :- Here you have to enter the

invoice number

Invoice date :- Invoice date

Installed place :- Installed place

Commissioned date :- Date of commission (Should

be greater than invoice date) pl note it is not the

installation date always

If everything entered correctly then the system will show the

customer code of that customer (A) (Will be required in

future) and the subsidy calculated by the system. Also an SMS

will automatically generate and send to the customer with

customer code about the installations just now you

entered. If there is any problem modify the customer details by

selecting the sanction order and customer mobile number again

and ensure that the subsidy calculated by computer and

one calculated by you are one and the same. Here again

SMS will go. If you want to delete a particular select that option.

If there is more than one entry for a particular customer you

have to enter the same mobile and when system asks just click

on cancel then it will go to the next screen. Here general details

of the customer will be displayed. You can correct if necessary.



Now you have to enter the serial number of Panel or Tank. If you

entered 2 tanks then 2 serial numbers you have to enter.

Similarly if you entered 5 panels then serial number of 5 panels

to be entered one by one. If the system is ETC then you have to

enter the serial number of the Tank(s) and if it is FPC you have to

enter the serial number of Panel(s). System will not allow going

further until you enter all serial numbers.

Here you have to enter 2 serial numbers one by one. Now upload

the photo of the customer along with the installation. You can

upload as much number of photos.



Here you have to upload the system photo.

If you are not able to enter the serial number of Panels / Tanks

through the customer details option you can enter it separately.(

If you enter it already, then no need to enter it again.)

To enter the serial numbers you have to select Ministry’s sanction, select Panel / Tank manufacturer and enter the customer code which you got after submitting the customer details. (A). If you forgot the customer code, using the help



option by entering mobile number or name and state you will get

the customer code. After everything goes correctly you can enter the serial numbers.

If you already entered the serial numbers and if you are still

attempting to enter the serial number, it will display already

entered serial number and ask you to select the serial number to

be modified. In this way you can modify the serial number.

If you are not able to upload the system photo along with the first

option you can use the option Upload System Photos. When you

click the following screen will come.

Here also you have to select the jpg or png files with less than

50kb and upload it.

Local Reports (for local use)

These reports are basically for your monitoring purpose. You can

use it for verifying the entry and for other monitoring purpose.

Basically it is for generating different statement based on the data entered by you. We will add more reports shortly. On selecting the reports (for local use) option you will get the following screen as on 24.10.13.



1. Entry and submission sanction wise This report will give you the sanctioned area, achieved area, achieved number of systems and final report submission number and date.

2. List of installation between two entry date. Computer will generate a list of entries made in the computer between two dates by Manufacture wise, System Integrator wise or All together according to your selection. This report can take at any time. Here you have to select the sanction number and from dates and to dates (date of entry) and also the other options of your choice. You can generate this report in customer code wise and invoice number wise. It can be used for verification of the entered data. Before taking the final report generate this report and modify the errors if any and then generate final report. Now you will get the list in excel sheet – Customer codewise.



3. List of serial numbers to be submitted (Manufacture wise)

This is the list of serial numbers of the corresponding customers. Before submitting the final report you have to verify that all serial numbers were entered in the computer. For that verification you can use this report. It may be noted that without entering the serial number you cannot generate the final report to be submitted to MNRE. Other reports will be added shortly

Report to be submitted to MNRE So far you have entered the data to the Ministry’s website. Now for the payment you have to submit the physical copy of all the data entered by you. You will get all the reports (physical copy) to be submitted to MNRE from this option. You have to generate one by one.

It may be noted that once you generate this report you are

not able to modify any of the entries made by you which

comes in this report. Hence before generating this report

all entries to should be made correct by generating local

reports.

1. Final Report - List of Customers type/Category wise is the main report (list of customers including all details ) to be generated to submit to MNRE. For generating this report you require one more password. SNA project officer should send a request to the mail id [email protected] for getting the password once they completed the entry. Computer will check the following when you try to generate this report.




Whether you achieved or entered 25% of the target. If your

achievement is less than 25% of the target then it will come out and you cannot generate the report.

Now you can generate the reports when you achieve 250M2. Without achieving 250M2 you cannot generate this report.

Corresponding to all Collectors/Panels or Tanks you have to enter the serial number. If any of the serial numbers is missing then you cannot generate the reports.

Corresponding to the subsystem entry in the main data entry form you have to enter the details of the subsystems. If any of this is missing you cannot generate the reports.

If everything is ok computer will ask confirmation for generating final report. It will generate a big list of customer’s in category wise. Serial number and page number will be printed corresponding to each category.

2. Annexure – List of SWHS where number of Panel is

greater than 20

This is an annexure to above final report 1. If there are more than 20 panels, then there will be more than 20 serial numbers. When it prints, the final report no.1 serial number column will overlap. To avoid this after generating final report 1, generate this annexure also. It will give another list. Keep the list along with final report 1.

3. Consolidated report to be submitted to MNRE

You can generate this report only after generating the final report number 1. After that when you generate this report as usual system will ask sanction number and final report number. Here you have to give the submission number say 1, 2, 3 etc.



accordingly. Please note that for a sanction you can submit

minimum 4 times as the minimum requirement is 25% of the target. So the first submission will be final report 1, second submission will final report 2 and so on. To generate the report in the requested format the system will further ask the range of Page number and range of serial numbers corresponding to each category of SWHS like FPC – Domestic, FPC – Others, ETC-Domestic and ETC – Others. This you have find from the report generated above (Report 1) and enter it. Without this entry system will not go further. It is for the

completion of the consolidated report in the prescribed format. Then the system will generate the consolidated statement to be submitted to MNRE. 4. Consolidated statement including institutes. This is for generating consolidated statement including institutes. It will be applicable for those who are installing systems in Special Category states.

5. Annexure – Sub System Reports. It is another annexure giving the details of subsystems.

It is the responsibility of the concerned SNAs to see the

figures are absolutely correct and Ministry will not be

responsible for the error. If you found any error in the

application it should be intimated to the Ministry

immediately.

Help

1. You will get this guideline

2. To view the details of a customer you entered.



By clicking this option you will get the following screen.

Here you can either enter the customer code or the mobile

number of the capacity of the system or a capacity which is

greater than a particular value. When you enter this you will get

the corresponding list. By viewing this you can verify the entry.

Next option is Free Photo Resizer.



It is a third application. You have to download the FPC (Free

Photo Converter) from that site and install in your system. Then

this FPC can be used to rectify your photo for reducing the size or

changing the type. If you have any other utility use it.
