    Solar panels work at full efficiency at around 25˚C. So even in winter they work fine. Even at lower temperatures, they typically perform well if sunshine is good. Colder regions, with their lesser issues of dust are also beneficial for solar generation. Remember, solar energy is generated by lightRead more

    Solar panels work at full efficiency at around 25˚C. So even in winter they work fine. Even at lower temperatures, they typically perform well if sunshine is good. Colder regions, with their lesser issues of dust are also beneficial for solar generation. Remember, solar energy is generated by light falling on solar panels, not by heat. So really hot temperatures offer no benefit to users.

    A cosumer cannot sell his/her electricity generated from his residential rooftop solar to any party other than the local electricity distribution company. Under the net-metering arrangement under the PM Surya Ghar the surplus energy is taken your power company and they also compensate it accordingly. However, in commercial projects, solar project developers earn money from solar projects. But usually to make money and profits from solar plants, you need to invest more and go through other formalities

    Partially true as majority of the solar module makers are based in Gujarat, especially Surat. However, several solar panel factories are now spread on Greater Noida, Ambala, Uttarakhand and even Hyderabad.

    The main benefit of solar compared to using coal or other polluting sources is the reduced Green House Gas emissions, less effect on the local water bodies, less affect on the coal mining etc. Extracting energy from sunlight reduces several such harmful effects which are otherwise involved when we produce energy from fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas. Many of these fossil fuels are exhaustible sources of energy and also their use leads to air pollution and increased global warming.

    Yes. You can clean solar panels without water too. For this, you can use soft micro-fibre-based cleaners. These are easily available offline and online. Many of them also come with extendable rod lengths to increase the extent of these dry cleaning equipment.

    In India, only a few companies offer direct sales of solar panels to customers through e-commerce platforms. However, due to the availability of certain panel manufacturers, purchasing panels online is possible. The country has around 130 solar panel manufacturers, with approximately 95 registered under MNRE’s ALMM (Approved List of Models and Manufacturers).

    Most module manufacturers do not sell solar panels directly to customers for rooftop solar projects. Instead, these panels are typically supplied by vendors who handle project installation. If you have a preference for a specific solar panel brand, you can request your vendor to source those panels or compatible inverters to meet your requirements. Vendors often have exclusive arrangements with manufacturers to supply these products. However, it is worth noting that many vendors offer only a limited selection of panel brands, restricting customer choices.
