    For hybrid rooftop solar connections, both lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries are available. Lead-acid batteries come at a lower price than their lithium counterparts. However, lead-acid batteries have a shorter lifespan and typically come with lower warranty periods compared to lithium-ion batteriRead more

However, lead-acid batteries have a shorter lifespan and typically come with lower warranty periods compared to lithium-ion batteries. In India, due to their lower cost, lead-acid batteries remain in demand.

    In case of rooftop solar, a cosumer cannot sell his/her electricity generated from his residential rooftop solar to any party other than the local electricity distribution company and make profits. Rooftop solar systems are usually designed not to earn money but to reduce monthly electricity bills. 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 projectsBut usually to make money and profits from solar plants, you need to invest more and go through other formalities.

    If you are a resident of UP, your bill will show total surplus solar energy exported to the grid, total power taken from the grid and balance surplus solar power from previous month (if any). In UP, the calculations of net energy charges are done based on the solar power an grid power usage. HoweverRead more

    If you are a resident of UP, your bill will show total surplus solar energy exported to the grid, total power taken from the grid and balance surplus solar power from previous month (if any). In UP, the calculations of net energy charges are done based on the solar power an grid power usage. However, even if your surplus solar power is more than your consumed grid power and the energy charges are in negative, you have to pay for your fixd monthy electricity meter charges and electricity duty.

    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.

    Partially true as majority of the solar module makers are based in Gujarat, especially Surat. However, several solar panel factories are now spread on Greater Noida, Ambala, Uttarakhand and even Hyderabad.

    Currently, in India, two types of modules are used in solar projects: DCR (Domestic Content Requirement) modules and non-DCR modules.

    DCR modules are those manufactured using solar cells produced domestically. This means that any solar module made using solar cells manufactured within India qualifies as a DCR module.

    The overall rooftop solar systems in India had been limited. However with the launch of PM Surya Ghar scheme with more capacities and easier application process, the residential rooftop solar system is likely to increase.
