    ALMM restrictions, effective April 1, apply to almost all solar projects. The only exception they effectively allow is for off grid projects, where you are not using the grid at all. Captive projects, since they are connected to the grid, are not exempt anymore.

    The PM-KUSUM (Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan) scheme is a government initiative to promote solar energy in rural areas. Under Component-A, farmers in Assam can lease their land to set up small solar power plants (up to 2 MW) near 33/11 kV substations. This allows farmers to earn extra income from their land while contributing to clean energy production. The 357 MW project by Assam Power Distribution Company Limited (APDCL) aims to make this opportunity accessible to farmers across the state.

    Bifacial modules produce solar power from both sides of the panel. This is based on something called the 'albedo' effect, where a light coloured floor or ground reflects enough light to generate electricity through the reverse side of the bi-facial solar panel.

    Bifacial modules produce solar power from both sides of the panel. This is based on something called the ‘albedo’ effect, where a light coloured floor or ground reflects enough light to generate electricity through the reverse side of the bi-facial solar panel. Thus, these panels can generate more power than other panels in the right conditions.

    Mono-perc solar panels have a passivated emitter & and rear cell and produce from a single side.

    To estimate how much electricity your solar system can generate in a day, you need a few key pieces of information:

    The total DC capacity of your solar system (in kW)

    The average number of peak sunlight hours in your area (also called solar irradiation)

    Just multiply your system size by the peak sunlight hours to get the theoretical daily generation.
    For example, if you have a 3 kW system and your area gets 5 hours of good sunlight daily, then:

    3 kW × 5 hours = 15 units (kWh) per day (theoretical)

    However, in real-world conditions, solar systems usually operate at about 78% to 80% efficiency due to energy losses (from wiring, inverter, dust on panels, etc.).

    So, you can expect around 20% less generation than the theoretical figure.
    Using the example above, the actual generation would be about:

    Several things can lower the amount of electricity your solar system produces. Dust, dirt, and bird droppings on panels (called soiling) can block sunlight, while cloudy or rainy weather naturally reduces how much sun your system gets.

    Several things can lower the amount of electricity your solar system produces. Dust, dirt, and bird droppings on panels (called soiling) can block sunlight, while cloudy or rainy weather naturally reduces how much sun your system gets.

    Even in perfect conditions, you won’t always get the maximum possible output. This is because your inverter, solar panels, and other equipment don’t work at 100% efficiency all the time. Over the years, solar panels also lose a little bit of their power—usually less than 1% per year. So, while your system may be designed for a certain output, real-world factors always bring that number down a bit.
