Frequently asked questions about Solar Energy
What is a rooftop solar system?
A rooftop solar system uses solar panels installed on a suitable roof to generate electricity from sunlight. The electricity can be used within the property, reducing the power purchased from the grid. The right system depends on electricity consumption, sanctioned load, usable roof area, shadow conditions, and technical feasibility.
How does an on-grid rooftop solar system work?
Solar panels generate direct current electricity during the day. An inverter converts it into alternating current electricity for use in the home or business. When permitted under the applicable net-metering arrangement, surplus generation is exported to the grid. When solar generation is insufficient, electricity is imported from the grid. Billing is based on applicable Discom regulations and tariffs.
Will an on-grid solar system work during a power cut?
A standard on-grid system automatically shuts down during a grid outage to protect utility personnel and equipment. Backup during a power cut requires a compatible hybrid or off-grid system, batteries and prescribed safety equipment. GK Energy can recommend the appropriate configuration after assessing your backup requirements.
Is rooftop solar suitable for my home or business?
Rooftop solar can be suitable for homes, housing societies, shops, offices, institutions and industrial facilities that have adequate, structurally sound and sufficiently shade-free roof space. Electricity usage, connection type, sanctioned load, roof ownership and local approvals also affect feasibility. A site survey is the best way to confirm suitability.
