FAQs
A little clarity, before you begin.
Solar basics
What is a rooftop solar system?
A rooftop solar system uses panels installed on your roof to convert sunlight into electricity. It can help reduce the amount of electricity you purchase from the grid, depending on your consumption and solar generation.
How does a rooftop solar system work?
Solar panels generate electricity from sunlight, and an inverter converts it into usable electricity for compatible appliances. Depending on the system configuration, excess electricity may be exported to the grid through an approved net-metering arrangement.
How do I know what solar system capacity I need?
The suitable capacity depends on your monthly electricity consumption, electricity bill, available roof space, daytime usage, and budget. Jyoti Innovations can help you assess your requirements and explore suitable options.
Can I install solar panels on my existing house?
Yes, many existing houses can accommodate rooftop solar. The roof's condition, available space, shading, structural suitability, and electrical arrangements should be assessed before installation.
Does a solar system work on cloudy days?
Yes. Solar panels can generate electricity in cloudy weather, but production is usually lower than on sunny days. Generation also varies with the season, shading, panel condition, and system capacity.
Can solar panels eliminate my electricity bill?
Solar can substantially reduce your electricity bill, but a zero bill is not guaranteed. Fixed charges, remaining grid consumption, applicable billing rules, and your system's actual generation can affect the final amount.
