    The additional surplus solar energy produced in rooftop solar setups in a grid-connected rooftop solar system is given to your electricity distribution company. The total number of surplus units not used by you and sent to the grid is also adjusted in your bill. So for example 100 units of surplus solar energy is not used by you and was sent to the grid, the electricity company while generating your bill will reduce 100 units from your total energy that used from the grid.

    TOPCon (Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact) solar modules are considered more efficient than existing technologies like mono-PERC and polycrystalline modules. In India, the industry is gradually shifting towards TOPCon due to its higher demand and superior efficiency. While mono-PERC modules typically achieve efficiencies of around 20-22%, TOPCon modules can reach 23-25% efficiency. This means they can convert more sunlight into electricity, making them a more effective choice for solar projects.

    Better to go with white paint to increase albedo sensitivity, which will increase the yield.

    No. There is no free solar scheme run by the government. These are rumours created by fake website. The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) is actually running a subsidized rooftop solar scheme for residential consumers where the consumers can get upto Rs 78,000 subsidies for installting rooftop solar. However, they have to bear the upfront cost on their own at the time of installation. There are other subsidized solar schemes too like PM-KUSUM where farmers get solar pumps with subsidy support.

    A cosumer cannot sell his/her electricity generated from his residential rooftop solar to any party other than the local electricity distribution company.

    A cosumer cannot sell his/her electricity generated from his residential rooftop solar to any party other than the local electricity distribution company. 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 projects. But usually to make money and profits from solar plants, you need to invest more and go through other formalities

    Yes, solar panels will continue to work even when dirty, although at a degraded performance level.

    Yes, solar panels will continue to work even when dirty, although at a degraded performance level. We have tracked output drops of over 15-20% in really dirty panels versus panels cleaned a day earlier. So if you are in an area prone to dusty weather, then cleaning your panels once a fortnite at least is advisable. Large, utility scale plants of course require much more regular maintenance.

    Solar  modules are actually closer to an assembly process than manufacturing. All previous levels in the chain, from cells to wafers to ingot and polysilicon, are not made in India, other than a little captive capacity for solar cells with some manufacturers.  Most of these are imported from China and are then embedded into a panel in India. Thus, with a capacity of over 60 GW now, in future, all solar modules you see are likely to have been ‘made’ in India.
