Solar guides, in plain English

No jargon, no sales pitch. Understand how each type of solar system actually works in India — the money, the constraints, and who each one suits.

🔌

On-Grid Solar

The cheapest, most common setup. Cut your bill, claim subsidy, export surplus — but no backup during outages.

🔋

Off-Grid Solar

Battery-backed independence. Works through blackouts, but costs more and no subsidy.

Hybrid Solar

Grid-tied with a small battery. Export like on-grid, keep essentials running during cuts.

📈

Earn from Surplus Space

Big terrace, warehouse roof, or idle plot? Oversize and sell what you don't use.

🔆

Panel Types Compared

Poly vs Mono PERC vs TOPCon vs Bifacial — efficiency, cost, and when each makes sense.
