For those going above 3 Kw there are no additional subsidies as the benefits are capped upto 3 KW. In addition to the central subsdies, you get additional subsidies from states too. Check out your additional state subsidies from your local discom or energy department.

    Overheating, Surges & Spikes

    One common reason for solar inverter failure is overheating due to lack of proper maintenance. Solar inverters are often installed in outdoor environments where they are exposed to sunlight and high temperatures. Over time, this exposure can cause the internal components of the inverter to overheat, leading to performance degradation and eventual failure. Inadequate ventilation or improper installation can exacerbate this issue, underscoring the importance of proper system design and maintenance.

    Another factor contributing to solar inverter failure is electrical surges or spikes. These can occur due to lightning strikes, grid voltage fluctuations, or switching events within the electrical system. While inverters are equipped with surge protection mechanisms, they are not immune to damage from high-voltage transients. Investing in additional surge protection devices and implementing proper grounding practices can help mitigate the risk of damage from electrical surges.

    Components & Firmware

    Component degradation and manufacturing defects are also potential causes of solar inverter failure. Over time, the internal components of inverters, such as capacitors and semiconductors, can degrade due to exposure to heat, moisture, and electrical stress. Regular monitoring and proactive maintenance can help identify early signs of component degradation, allowing for timely repairs or replacements.

    Furthermore, software and firmware issues can affect the performance and reliability of solar inverters. Firmware bugs, compatibility issues with other system components, and software glitches can all lead to malfunctions or operational errors. Keeping inverters up-to-date with the latest firmware releases and working with reputable manufacturers can help minimize the risk of software-related failures.

    Usually in a residential rooftop project, a 3 Kw rooftop solar can ideally generate upto 10-12 units per day. The daily generations are usually dependent on the local weather. Usually when there is good sunlight throughout the day, you can get the best generation (if your solar panels are clean). During clouds, rains, the generations reduces. So a system which can generate around 12 Kw per day can also generate 5 kw or 7 Kw during clouds/rains. The generation also varies season to season, depending on the quality of sunlight and availaility of sunlight.

    While cleaning solar modules with water first thing you should do is to use soft bristle cleaner or dedicated solar panel cleaning brushes. You need to also ensure that you do not use excessive water pressure. Excess water pressure can damage your solar panels leading to the development of microcracks. The maximum pressure that can be used for solar panel cleaning is 35 bars. You should also try to use soft water for cleaning solar modules.
