    You need to pay the full cost of the rooftop solar project under the PM Surtya Ghar scheme. The govt later disburses the subsidies to your account usually in 1-2 months.

    Yes, Mounted solar panels are available in the market and are being used widely. BIPV (Building Integrated PV) for instance refers to panels that are used as substitutes for windows. Similarly, solar panels are being used on balcony’s now, besides for fencing as a solar fence. These options, while not optimum in terms of generation, do help to provide you with a solar energy source in well irradiated areas.

    TOPCon (Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact) solar modules are considered more efficient than existing technologies like mono-PERC and polycrystalline modules. In India, the industry is gradually shifting towards TOPCon due to its higher demand and superior efficiency. While mono-PERC modules typically achieve efficiencies of around 20-22%, TOPCon modules can reach 23-25% efficiency. This means they can convert more sunlight into electricity, making them a more effective choice for solar projects.

    It is not mandatory to install residential string inverters inside a room or under a canopy, as they come with IP65 protection enclosures. However, installing a canopy to avoid direct sunlight on the inverters is beneficial. This will ensure that the inverter’s internal components are not adversely affected by heat, thereby increasing the inverter’s lifespan.

    Inverters are very important part of the solar system. Rooftop solar systems produce DC electricity. Inverters convert this DC energy into AC energy. There are multiple solar inverters in the market. Some of the manufactrers include-Sungrow, GoodWe, Solis, Deye, Luminous and Microtek.
