India Solar Mission is your step-by-step guide to going solar for your Home, Schools, Hospitals, Industries and more.

Why Go Solar?
Cost Savings
Reduce electricity bills by up to 90%. Solar pays for itself in 3-5 years with 25+ year panel life.
Energy Independence
Generate your own power and protect yourself from rising electricity costs and power cuts.
Sustainability
Reduce carbon footprint and contribute to India’s clean energy goals. Go green, go solar.
Govt Subsidies
Get up to 40% subsidy on solar installations from central and state government schemes.
Solar Basics
Solar panels convert sunlight into DC electricity using photovoltaic cells. An inverter converts this DC power into AC electricity for your home. Excess power can be stored in batteries or fed back to the grid through net metering. The process is silent, clean, and requires minimal maintenance while providing reliable power for decades.
Solar Panels: Convert sunlight to electricity using photovoltaic cells. Available in monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and thin-film varieties.
Inverter: Converts DC power from panels into AC power for home use. Types include string inverters, micro-inverters, and hybrid inverters.
Battery Storage: Stores excess energy for use during night time or power cuts. Lithium-ion and lead-acid are common types.
Charge Controller: Regulates the voltage and current from panels to batteries, preventing overcharging.
Mounting Structure: Secures panels to your roof or ground, designed to withstand wind and weather conditions.
Net Meter: Bi-directional meter that tracks power consumed from and exported to the grid.
1. Site Survey: Engineer visits to assess roof strength, shading, and optimal panel placement.
2. System Design: Custom design based on your energy needs and available roof space.
3. Permissions: Obtain approvals from electricity board and municipal authorities.
4. Installation: Mount structure, install panels, inverter, and complete all electrical wiring.
5. Grid Connection: Install net meter and connect to the electricity grid.
6. Commissioning: System testing, activation, and handover with training on monitoring.
Solar panels require minimal maintenance but regular care ensures optimal performance. Clean panels 2-4 times yearly to remove dust, bird droppings, and debris. Monitor system performance through your app or display to catch issues early. Check for shading from growing trees. Inspect wiring and connections annually for wear. Most quality systems come with 25-year panel warranties and 5-10 year inverter warranties. Professional maintenance visits once a year are recommended.
