General
Solar energy is power generated by converting sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) panels. When sunlight hits the solar panels, it creates an electric current that can power your home or business. Any excess energy can be stored in batteries or fed back to the grid.
Most properties in Bikaner and Rajasthan are excellent candidates for solar due to our abundant sunshine (300+ sunny days per year). We assess factors like roof orientation, shading, available space, and structural integrity. Even if your roof isn't ideal, we can suggest ground-mounted alternatives.
Quality solar panels typically last 25-30 years or more. Most manufacturers offer 25-year performance warranties. Panels don't suddenly stop working; they gradually produce slightly less energy over time (typically 0.5-1% less per year).
Costs & Savings
The cost depends on system size, panel brand, and installation complexity. A typical 3kW residential system costs ₹1.5-2.5 lakhs before subsidies. Use our Solar Calculator for an instant estimate based on your requirements.
Most customers save 70-90% on their electricity bills. The exact savings depend on your current consumption, system size, and usage patterns. Many customers achieve complete energy independence with zero electricity bills.
With government subsidies and current electricity rates, most systems pay for themselves in 3-5 years. After that, you enjoy essentially free electricity for the remaining 20+ years of the system's life.
Yes! We work with several banks and NBFCs that offer solar loans at attractive interest rates. Many customers opt for EMI payments that are less than their current electricity bills, making solar immediately cost-effective.
Government Subsidies
Yes! The PM Surya Ghar Yojana provides substantial subsidies for residential solar installations. Subsidies can cover 40-60% of system costs for systems up to 3kW. We handle all subsidy paperwork for our customers.
We take care of the entire subsidy application process. This includes preparing documents, registering on the government portal, coordinating inspections, and ensuring you receive the subsidy amount in your bank account.
After installation and inspection, the subsidy is typically credited to your bank account within 30-90 days. We keep you updated throughout the process.
Installation & Maintenance
A typical residential installation takes 1-3 days. Commercial installations may take 1-2 weeks depending on system size. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
Solar panels require minimal maintenance. We recommend cleaning them 2-4 times a year (or more in dusty conditions) and an annual inspection. We offer maintenance packages for hassle-free operation.
With a grid-tied system (without battery), solar power is not available during grid outages for safety reasons. If you need backup power, we can install a hybrid system with battery storage that works during power cuts.
We provide comprehensive warranties: 25 years on solar panels, 5-10 years on inverters, and 1-2 years on installation workmanship. We also offer extended warranty and AMC packages.
