While cleaning solar modules with water first thing you should do is to use soft bristle cleaner or dedicated solar panel cleaning brushes. You need to also ensure that you do not use excessive water pressure. Excess water pressure can damage your solar panels leading to the development of microcracks. The maximum pressure that can be used for solar panel cleaning is 35 bars. You should also try to use soft water for cleaning solar modules.

1. Solar Inverter Battery
Your inverter’s endurance depends significantly on its battery. Hence, choosing the right battery matters. Your battery’s capacity is defined as the maximum number of hours for which a battery can power all devices. Accordingly, you should assess your energy needs and the average time for which you will require the solar inverter and make an informed decision that helps you optimize the use of solar power.
2. Safety Certification
This one is another essential consideration. You must check the solar inverter for its level of safety. It is crucial to choose a solar inverter certified for its safety by an independent testing authority before you purchase and use it for your solar venture.
3. Inverter’s VA Rating Range
Check the inverter’s VA rating or VA capacity to determine the solar inverter’s output. The VA rating depends on your consumption of power. Higher power consumption refers to a higher requirement of the inverter’s VA rating.
4. Peak Power Considerations
Solar inverters are usually expected to supply two types of power – peak and typical power. Now, what are peak and typical power?
Peak power is the optimal power a solar inverter can supply for a trivial duration, which could be between a few seconds to around ten to twelve minutes. Some appliances require higher power while starting up than they do to operate under normal circumstances after being powered.
On the other hand, typical power is the usual power that the inverter supplies consistently
after the device receives its power to begin and stabilize.
5. Inverter Brand
It is another critical factor to consider. While it is a no-brainer to choose the most popular and the best solar inverter brand, what matters is whether the brand you select enables you to reap optimal returns. Accordingly, you should choose solar inverter brands that offer the features, efficiency, and proposition that allow you to achieve the energy self-dependence you’ve always endeavored for.

The benchmark cost of 1 kW of solar energy has been taken as Rs 55,000 for the first two kW of a system, and Rs 45,000 for third kW. However, actual costs vary depending on state and installer.

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.
