Solar Module

Even for the same wattage (Wp), TOPCon-based solar panels can perform better (or proudce more solar power). This is due to the better efficient solar cells used and lower degradation levels. On an average it is said that TOPCon-based modules can produce 5% extra generation than mono-perc based solar modules.

Now, MNRE has made this process more convenient. Now the PM Surya Ghar Portal allows you to check details of each vendor like the number of solar projects they have installed. You can also find out which companies have installed the highest number of solar panels in your area. You just need to go the portal, go to the empanelled vendors and feed in your local discom name and your city, and the portal will give you the details?

It is likely that cyclone and high wind can damage your solar project. However, strong solar structures with robust technology can prevent such damage. So it is very important that you do not go for weak, slick solar structures and trust modern and robust technology which are resilient to extreme weather events

Solar cell manufacturing is inherently more complex than solar module production, which is largely an assembly-based process. The production of solar cells requires significantly higher capital investment at the outset. In India, the establishment of solar cell production facilities also involves navigating additional regulatory hurdles. This is due to the water usage during production and the disposal of effluents. Furthermore, the handling of ingots and wafers involves working with hazardous materials. As a result, apart from the capital requirements, solar cell manufacturing and related backward integration must comply with stricter environmental, pollution control, safety, and waste management regulations at the state level.
