Solar power is used to generate electricity for residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. It can power everything from industrial machinery to household appliances. Additionally, solar power provides electricity to remote areas where traditional power sources are unavailable.

The Indian Government offers affordable solar panel subsidies to only residential homes to promote sustainable energy. The PM Surya Ghar scheme focuses on revolutionizing the energy sector by prioritizing solar installations for middle-class and lower-income households. Subsidies include ₹30,000 for 1Kw, ₹60,000 for 2Kw and only ₹78,000 for 3kw and above.

Solar panels have a life expectancy of 30 years if regularly cleaned to remove dust and dirt, ensuring optimal power generation.

In theory, yes, you can generate enough energy for your home and send the excess back to the power grid. However, in practice, there is a minimum bill of approximately ₹100 – ₹200 for every meter.
