Yes. While currently are the handful of solar cell makers in India with a total capacity of around 8 GW, a number of solar companies have planned to setup solar cell lines. Around 30 Indian solar companies have announced setting up or expanding solar cell lines. If all announcements come true, India will have around 30 companies making solar cells by the end of 2027. The total production capacity from all these 30 companies is likely to touch 110 GW by the end of 2027.

Yes. Solar manufacturers have revealed that the imposition of Basic Customs Duty (BCD) on solar glass and anti-dumping duty on the same can prevent the availability of cheap solar glass for Indian solar manufacturers. Experts claimed that it would lead to a minor increase in solar panel prices on a per Watt basis. Although this will boost the demand for Indian solar glass makers like Borosil Renewables, this will affect the raw material cost for the solar module makers in India.

The main benefit of solar compared to using coal or other polluting sources is the reduced Green House Gas emissions, less effect on the local water bodies, less affect on the coal mining etc. Extracting energy from sunlight reduces several such harmful effects which are otherwise involved when we produce energy from fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas. Many of these fossil fuels are exhaustible sources of energy and also their use leads to air pollution and increased global warming.

Yes. You can use non-abrasive soft clothes or duster to clean the solar panels to remove upper layer dust. Try to do it in an interval of 5-7 days, based on the dust levels to avoid unecessary wearing chances. You can use water for clearning twice a month to remove hard to remove layers of dust withRead more
Yes. You can use non-abrasive soft clothes or duster to clean the solar panels to remove upper layer dust. Try to do it in an interval of 5-7 days, based on the dust levels to avoid unecessary wearing chances. You can use water for clearning twice a month to remove hard to remove layers of dust with the help of soft-bristle brushes. Keep it mind not to use high pressure water.

Several solar companies provide Operations & Maintenance (O&M) service for the initial 5 years as the major components like solar panels and solar inverters provide warranty for this period. Some solar companies give regular monthly cleaning in a package during the time of installation either for a period of 5 years and even after that. There are also some companies dedicated to the O&M services at a cost. However, there are also several non-professional companies that have flourished. Some of them are seen using high pressure water and detergents to clean the solar panels. So please choose your O&M partner based on their team strength and background.
