    A rooftop solar system comprises of solar panels, inverters, net-meters, solar structures, earthing wires, connecting wires, lightening arresters and others. These are mandatory parts needed in the system. So it is not the solar panel alone but a whole range of other items too that make the whole syRead more

    If you are using UPS and battery for power backup, a new rooftop solar connection will not hamper the functining of your batteries and power backup. It will work like it used to work before the installation of rooftop solar.

    Yes. Solar manufacturers have revealed that the imposition of Basic Customs Duty (BCD) on solar glass and anti-dumping duty on the same can prevent the availability of cheap solar glass for Indian solar manufacturers. Experts claimed that it would lead to a minor increase in solar panel prices on a per Watt basis. Although this will boost the demand for Indian solar glass makers like Borosil Renewables, this will affect the raw material cost for the solar module makers in India.

    If you want to increase the solar energy generation in vertical solar installations (solar panels aligned along the walls) in buildings. You can do the following things-

    1. Optimise the orientation of the panels such as using south-, east-, or west-facing facades.
    2. You can also opt for highly efficient solar modules to maximise generation from the same area.
    3. Enhancing the reflectivity of surrounding areas, such as using light-colored pavements or walls, further boosts energy capture.

    String inverters are electrical devices that convert the direct current (DC) generated by solar panels into alternating current (AC). They are usually installed in a string formation where multiple solar panels are connected in series to form a single circuit. They differ from central inverters in terms of capacity as central inverters are designed to handle large amounts of power at a fixed frequency.

How do I calculate my solar bill for my house?

  • 0
  • Manish Kumar
    Manish Kumar
    Deputy Editor at Saur Energy International | Answer on May 23, 2024 at 3:19 pm

    Solar bill can be calculated using the daily electricity usage for the house minus the electricity generated by the solar panels. The result is multiplied by the electricity rates in your area. A negative result means that you have energy credit.
