Top 5 Solar-Related Queries from Consumers: Answered by Rayzon Solar
As the solar energy industry continues to expand, more consumers are turning to renewable energy solutions like solar power. With this growing interest comes a wave of questions from homeowners and businesses who want to learn more about the benefits, installation process, and options for solar energy. To help answer these questions, Rayzon Solar is here to provide clear and comprehensive responses to some of the top consumer inquiries.
If you’re thinking about making the switch to solar energy, here are the top 5 solar-related queries we’ve received, along with detailed answers to help guide your decision.
1. How Do I Apply for a Residential Rooftop Solar System?
One of the most common questions is about how to apply for a residential rooftop solar system. The government has simplified the process through the National Rooftop Solar Portal, also known as the PM Surya Ghar Portal.
To apply, consumers need to create an account using their mobile number and OTP, fill out the required form, and submit their application online. The best part? The application is free of cost! Consumers can choose from a list of approved vendors and even track their application status through the portal.
For those looking to take advantage of government schemes, the PM Surya Ghar Portal offers a smooth and user-friendly application process.
2. How Many Indian Solar Panel Manufacturers Are There?
India is home to a thriving solar manufacturing industry, with more than 100 Indian solar module manufacturers. Many of these manufacturers, including Rayzon Solar, have production units in Gujarat, a key region for solar energy development, while others have facilities in Hyderabad, Uttar Pradesh, and additional areas across India.
Currently, 93 Indian manufacturers are listed in the MNRE’s Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM). This approval ensures that the products meet high-quality standards and are eligible for government incentives and subsidies.
At Rayzon Solar, we are proud to be part of this growing industry, providing high-quality solar panels that are known for their efficiency, reliability, and durability.
3. What Is a Net-Meter in a Rooftop Solar System?
For consumers who opt for on-grid solar systems, one important component is the net meter. A net meter replaces your conventional electric meter and serves a crucial function in your solar energy system.
With a net meter, any surplus solar power generated by your rooftop solar system is sent back to the grid. When your home or business needs more power than your solar panels are generating, the net meter allows you to draw electricity from the grid. It keeps track of both the energy you supply to and take from the grid, ensuring accurate billing and allowing you to benefit from any excess energy your system generates.
At Rayzon Solar, we guide our customers through the entire process, including the installation of a net meter, to make sure they get the most out of their solar investment.
4. Which Is Better: Off-Grid or On-Grid Solar Systems?
The decision between an off-grid and on-grid solar system depends on your specific needs and location. For urban areas, on-grid systems are often the preferred choice, particularly because they are eligible for subsidies under the PM Surya Ghar Scheme.
On-grid systems allow you to stay connected to the electricity grid, ensuring a continuous power supply even if your solar panels are not generating enough energy. These systems are best for areas with few power cuts, as they maximize efficiency and allow consumers to take advantage of net metering.
On the other hand, off-grid solar systems are ideal for rural areas where frequent power outages occur, or in locations where the grid is unreliable. Off-grid systems are self-sustaining, as they rely entirely on the energy generated by the solar panels, often paired with batteries for energy storage.
At Rayzon Solar, we offer both on-grid and off-grid solutions tailored to your energy needs, ensuring you get the most effective system for your location.
5. What Are the Financing Options for Rooftop Solar?
When it comes to financing your solar energy system, there are plenty of options available. Several national banks and NBFCs (Non-Banking Financial Companies) provide special loans for rooftop solar systems.
Consumers can find detailed information about lenders and loan offers through the National Rooftop Solar Portal or PM Surya Ghar Portal. Currently, around 18 banks and NBFCs are offering solar financing options, making it easier for homeowners and businesses to invest in solar energy.
