In India, March to May generally delivers the highest solar power generation, with April often emerging as the peak month for many regions. This is because these months combine very high solar irradiance, clear skies and longer sunshine hours before the arrival of the monsoon season. Northern, western and central Indian states such as Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh especially witness strong solar output during this period. However, in some extremely hot regions, excessive panel temperatures during peak summer can slightly reduce efficiency despite abundant sunlight. Solar generation usually drops during June to September due to cloud cover and rainfall during the monsoon season.
