    How does rooftop solar work

    A rooftop solar system consists of many components that work together to convert sun light into electricity.

    Why should you switch to solar

    Increasing electricity bill

    Electricity bills are climbing rapidly, and they will only continue to increase as most power is still generated by thermal plants, which consume vast amounts of coal and crude oil. In India, electricity bills rise by 3-4% annually on average. Solar energy, however, is free and abundant—requiring just a one-time investment in installation to significantly reduce your long-term energy costs.

    Growing Climate Concerns

    Thermal power plants are among the largest contributors to CO2 and greenhouse gas emissions, with coal accounting for nearly 45% of total carbon emissions. Solar energy is clean and leaves no environmental footprint during generation. A 1 kW solar system can offset CO2 equivalent to 75 fully grown trees every year, making it a powerful tool in the fight against climate change.

    Strengthening the National Economy

    India heavily relies on foreign countries for coal and crude oil, making energy import-dependent and vulnerable to global price fluctuations. By switching to solar, India can reduce its reliance on imports, lower its energy costs, and invest more in domestic renewable energy, strengthening the economy from within.

    Is Solar reliable in all seasons including monsoon

    India enjoys over 300 sunny days a year, with a solar incidence of 4-7 kWh/sq.m/day, making it perfect for solar energy.

    Solar energy remains a dependable source even during the monsoon season. While energy generation can decrease slightly in cloudy weather, the overall reliability of solar power remains strong due to the abundance of sunny days throughout the year.

    India receives an average of 300-330 sunny days annually, ensuring a steady supply of solar energy. Though output may dip during monsoons or in the winter months, these fluctuations are balanced out over the year, making solar a consistent source of energy.

    On average, a 1 kW solar system generates approximately 1300 kWh of electricity each year. This makes solar energy a reliable option year-round, even in regions with significant seasonal changes, like monsoon-heavy areas.

    Solar energy is clean and affordable, boosting the economy while combating climate change—so much so that the Government of India has set an ambitious target to achieve a generation capacity of 280 GW by 2030.
