Solar energy provides significant cost savings on electricity bills, reduces your carbon footprint, increases property value, and offers energy independence. It's a sustainable investment that pays for itself over time.
How long does a solar installation take?
A typical residential solar installation takes 1-3 days depending on system size and roof complexity. The entire process from consultation to activation usually takes 4-8 weeks including permits and inspections.
What is the lifespan of solar panels?
Modern solar panels typically last 25-30 years or more. They degrade at about 0.5% per year, meaning they'll still produce 80% of their original capacity after 25 years. Most manufacturers offer 25-year warranties.
Do solar panels work on cloudy days?
Yes, solar panels work on cloudy days, though at reduced efficiency. They can generate 10-25% of their rated capacity on overcast days. Modern panels are designed to capture diffuse light effectively.
What maintenance do solar systems require?
Solar systems require minimal maintenance. Occasional cleaning to remove dust and debris, annual inspections, and monitoring of performance are recommended. Most systems are designed to be maintenance-free for years.
Are there government incentives for solar installation?
Yes, India offers various government incentives including subsidies, tax credits, and net metering benefits. We help you navigate all available schemes and maximize your savings through government programs.
