You need to pay the full cost of the rooftop solar project under the PM Surtya Ghar scheme. The govt later disburses the subsidies to your account usually in 1-2 months.

See lessUsually solar panels degrade at the rate of 0.5% to 0.8% oer year based on the technology used and the degradation rate. So after 20 years, if the degradation rate is 0.5%, the total effiiency of the solar panel will remain 90% instead of 100%.

See lessIt depends on the sector of solar we talk about. Like for residential rooftop solar, govt gives subsidies of around Rs 78,000 for a 3 Kw system. In case of large projects, there are other incentives through Green Energy Open Access, incentives in transmission, land banks, plug and play services etc.

A hybrid solar inverter is a piece of equipment that is created by combining a solar inverter and a battery inverter into a single unit. This allows the hybrid solar inverter to intelligently handle power coming from your solar panels, solar batteries, and the utility grid all at the same time.

Installing a solar inverter with a higher capacity offers several advantages. Firstly, it provides flexibility to increase the DC capacity of the solar array in the future without needing to replace the inverter. This reduces the overall stress on the inverter components and lowers the probability of failures over time.
However, it’s important to note that installing a significantly higher capacity inverter than necessary is not always required. Most inverters are designed to operate efficiently even in higher ambient temperatures. However AC to DC ratio, typically ranging from 1:1 to 1:1.2, can be sufficient to ensure optimal performance and reliability without the need for excessive overcapacity in the inverter.

EPC stands for Engineering, Procurement, and Construction. It refers to the process of designing, procuring materials, and constructing solar power plants. It mainly means the person or group of persons/companies responsible for constructiong the solar project on the site.

In India, only a few companies offer direct sales of solar panels to customers through e-commerce platforms. However, due to the availability of certain panel manufacturers, purchasing panels online is possible. The country has around 130 solar panel manufacturers, with approximately 95 registered under MNRE’s ALMM (Approved List of Models and Manufacturers).
Most module manufacturers do not sell solar panels directly to customers for rooftop solar projects. Instead, these panels are typically supplied by vendors who handle project installation. If you have a preference for a specific solar panel brand, you can request your vendor to source those panels or compatible inverters to meet your requirements. Vendors often have exclusive arrangements with manufacturers to supply these products. However, it is worth noting that many vendors offer only a limited selection of panel brands, restricting customer choices.
