    To install a solar panel inverter, the first step is to determine the location of the inverter. Typically, inverters are installed in a garage or a shed, as they are typically outdoor devices with proper ventilation and at an optimum distance from the panel array. Once the location is determined, the inverter is mounted to the roof or wall and connected to the electrical system.
    In a solar panel inverter installation, The inverter is connected to the solar panels through a set of wires. The inverter is the part of the solar system that converts the direct current (DC) from the solar panels to alternating current (AC) for use in your home.

    Once the inverter is connected to the electrical system after solar inverter installation it can be turned on and ready to start producing power.

    Reliance is yet to begin manufacturing solar modules. The company will begin production By March-April 2024 at its Jamnagar facility, based on inputs provided by it. However, initially, most of their production is expected to be used for captive consumption. So you may not need modules manufactured by Reliance being available for sale until much later.

    However REC, a Singapore based firm that has been in the business of making solar modules  for a long time was acquired by Reliance Industries in 2021. To that extent, you can buy modules from a Reliance owned module manufacturer even today in India.

    The U.S. has imposed a 27% tariff on Indian solar module imports, potentially reducing their competitiveness in the American market. This could lead to decreased export volumes and revenue for Indian manufacturers. For more details https://www.saurenergy.com/solar-energy-news/trump-tariffs-and-impacRead more

    If you want to increase the solar energy generation in vertical solar installations (solar panels aligned along the walls) in buildings. You can do the following things-

    1. Optimise the orientation of the panels such as using south-, east-, or west-facing facades.
    2. You can also opt for highly efficient solar modules to maximise generation from the same area.
    3. Enhancing the reflectivity of surrounding areas, such as using light-colored pavements or walls, further boosts energy capture.

    In case of rooftop solar, a cosumer cannot sell his/her electricity generated from his residential rooftop solar to any party other than the local electricity distribution company and make profits. Rooftop solar systems are usually designed not to earn money but to reduce monthly electricity bills. Under the net-metering arrangement under the PM Surya Ghar the surplus energy is taken your power company and they also compensate it accordingly. However, in commercial projects, solar project developers earn money from solar projectsBut usually to make money and profits from solar plants, you need to invest more and go through other formalities.
