Accepted Answer

Under the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, residential homeowners are eligible for significant government subsidies. For systems up to 2kW, the subsidy is ₹30,000 per kW. For 3kW, the subsidy is ₹1,08,000. For commercial and housing societies, other rules and accelerated depreciation benefits apply.

Question 5

What is net metering and how does it save money?

Accepted Answer

Net metering is a billing mechanism that credits solar energy system owners for the electricity they add to the grid. When your solar panels generate more electricity than you consume, the excess power is exported back to the state electricity grid. Your utility bill is then calculated based on the 'net' energy consumed (Import minus Export).

Question 6

What is the expected lifespan of solar panels?

Accepted Answer

Standard Tier-1 monocrystalline solar modules have an operational lifespan of 25 to 30 years. Most panels come with a linear performance warranty guaranteeing at least 80% of original power output at the 25-year mark.

Question 7

Do solar panels generate electricity on cloudy or rainy days?

Accepted Answer

Yes, solar panels still generate electricity on cloudy, overcast, or rainy days, but at a reduced capacity (typically 10% to 25% of their peak output). The panels absorb daylight, not just direct sunlight, so power generation continues throughout the daytime.
