Solar Benefits!
Investing in solar power means 25 years of energy independence, freeing you from rising electricity costs and power cuts. With zero fuel costs and minimal maintenance, it’s a smart financial choice that pays for itself while adding value to your property.
Switching to solar power significantly cuts your electricity bills by using free energy from the sun. With net metering, you can even send excess power to the grid, reducing costs further or earning credits. Over time, these savings add up, making solar a smart and cost-effective investment for your home or business.
Solar power enhances grid security by reducing dependence on conventional energy sources and easing grid load. During outages or peak demand, solar systems with battery backup keep your home powered, ensuring reliability. A stronger, more resilient grid benefits everyone, making energy more stable and sustainable.
Solar energy is limitless, harnessing the sun’s power to provide clean, renewable electricity every day. Unlike fossil fuels, it never runs out, ensuring a stable and sustainable energy source for generations. By tapping into this eternal power, you gain energy independence while protecting the planet.
Solar power promotes eco-sustainability by reducing carbon emissions and reliance on fossil fuels. It harnesses clean, renewable energy, protecting natural resources and minimizing environmental impact. By choosing solar, you contribute to a greener planet and a sustainable future for generations to come.
FAQs
The area required for a rooftop solar system depends on the system size and panel efficiency. On average, a 1 kW system requires 8-10 square meters (86-108 square feet) of space (Preferably, south facing in India). The efficiency of the panels and roof conditions like tilt and shading can also affect space requirements. Generally, high-efficiency panels will need less space for the same energy output.
Mainly three types:
- Ongrid solar system
- Off grid solar system
- Hybrid solar system
To understand the working of each of these systems please refer to our services page.
Ongrid Solar system is suggested in areas where there is grid connectivity and there are very few or minimal power outages. The intent is mainly to reduce monthly electricity bill.
To understand the working of On grid system, please refer to services page.
Off grid system is used where either in remote areas where Grid connectivity is absent, or in areas where there is few hours of power supply with frequent and long duration power outages.
To understand the working of Off grid system, please refer to services page.
A net meter is required for on-grid solar systems only because it tracks the excess electricity your system generates and sends back to the grid. It allows you to receive credits for the surplus power, reducing your electricity bill.
To get a net meter in India, you need to apply to your local electricity supplier after installing an on-grid solar system. Typically, you will need to submit documents like your Aadhaar card, proof of property ownership or rental agreement, solar installation certificate, and a copy of the application for grid connection. The electricity supplier will verify these documents and then install the net meter to measure your energy usage and surplus generation.
Don’t worry, we will assist you with the net meter.
A rooftop solar system typically lasts between 25 to 30 years. The panels’ efficiency may decrease slightly over time, but they can still produce energy for many years with proper maintenance. Most manufacturers offer warranties for 25 years, ensuring long-term performance.
Solar system maintenance is relatively simple and mainly involves cleaning the panels to remove dust, dirt, and debris. All it requires is to wash panels once every 15-20 days or whenever it appears to have accumulated dust and dirt, and wiped clean with a cloth.
On cloudy days, solar panels can still generate electricity, but their efficiency is not 100% This is because the clouds block some of the sunlight, reducing the amount of energy that reaches the panels. However, they can still capture diffused sunlight and provide power.
