Usually solar panels degrade at the rate of 0.5% to 0.8% oer year based on the technology used and the degradation rate. So after 20 years, if the degradation rate is 0.5%, the total effiiency of the solar panel will remain 90% instead of 100%.

The delay could be primarily at two end-one at the solar vendor end and other at the discom-level end. As per consumers’ feedback, sometimes solar vendors delay the installation of the project due to lack of manpower or availability of raw materials while several times discoms delay the process in inspection of the rooftop system post installation, installation of net-meters, testing of meters and final commissioning of the project. However, several state electricity regulators are now issuing directives to streamline the process.

Till 10 KW setup, it will only take 1-2 days to complete the installation rest all will take for the paperwork, Government formalities and the net metering.

If you want to undertake rooftop solar business, you need to register with the discom (electricity distribution company) where you want to operate. As per the PM Surya Ghar scheme norms, only the registered solar vendors can undertake residential rooftop solar installations. The consumers can get subsidies for rooftop solar projects under the PM Surya Ghar scheme only if they get their installations done by registered vendors only. The National Rooftop Portal maintains a list of all the registered solar vendors who are undertaking these installations. For getting registered with the local discom, these companies also need to pay annual fees to them to get their registrations done.

Hybrid inverters or any inverters attached to solar systems are installed by professionals who have training and expertise in setting up solar projects. Hybrid inverters give the extra advantage of using solar power from grid-connected solar system even when there is power blackout from the grid. Do not try to do any such installation on your own, otherwise it can expose you to the risk of electrical shocks.
