    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.

    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%.
