Save Electricity by Converting a Simple Rooftop into a Solar Power Plant

Over the years, Indians have started embracing the sun with the fall of prices in solar panels. The government has also invested in the development of solar technology as it is the most independent and affordable way for people to power their lives. In India, the solar adoption through net-metering is yet to pick up the pace, also in Union Territories and few states where this energy has implemented. In this piece of article we are discussing the benefits and the concept of on-grid PV system.

  1. Save Electricity by Converting a Simple Rooftop into a Solar Power Plant Over the years, Indians have started embracing the sun with the fall of prices in solar panels. The government has also invested in the development of solar technology as it is the most independent and affordable way for people to power their lives. According to the sources, the government from the rooftop projects wants to achieve its ambitious target of generating 40 GW of power by 2022. However, in India, the solar adoption through net- metering is yet to pick up the pace, also in Union Territories and few states where this energy has implemented. On-Grid PV system refers to a power system that is connected to the utility grid and generates electricity from a solar array Before we discover the benefits of on-grid PV system, let us know about the concept of net metering system in India. The concept of On-Grid PV system To place it in laymen term, the electricity board uses the net metering process to keep track of the energy consumed and generated by the solar-powered house. Into the state’s power grid, it allows the consumers to feed surplus solar power when not required, and receive a credit on their electricity bill. For instance, residing in a state where the net metering policy has implemented, the consumer gets credited for the electricity delivered back to the grid at the same retail price, which the consumer purchased for the power taken from the grid. Benefits of On-Grid PV System Whether you want to save the environment or interested in ways to reduce your energy bills, here are few simple techniques that will help you to be proactive and money savvy

  2. when it comes to energy. Opportunity to earn an income With net metering systems, you only pay for the deficit power consumed, i.e. the difference between the energy consumed by the household from the grid and the solar power generated from the panels. As a result, it significantly lessens your electricity bill and gives you an opportunity to earn an income. Fewer Resources required The net metering system needs fewer resources and not large tracts of land since the time it has installed on the roofs of commercial and residential areas. SaveGeo is one such company that offers effective on-grid solar power solutions based on the requirement set by the customer, devising industrial, commercial, and residential applications. Also, providing solutions that are scalable from 5kW to 1 MW and above Moreover, not using expensive battery backups to balance out the power consumption through the day, net metering solar systems use the state-owned power grid as a giant battery that reduces the expenditure on installation. Low Maintenance To install the components of the net metering system like inverters, mounting structures and solar panels batteries and generators are not required. As a result, a considerable expense for their maintenance is avoided, and it saves not only your money but also time. How does On-grid PV System work? To the solar panels, one or more inverters are connected, which converts the direct current (DC) from the solar panels to alternating current (AC) for your premise. In an on-grid PV system, there is no provision of backup as there are no batteries involved. It can, however, be customized to include a small battery bank to provide buffer without compromising the performance and quality No batteries make on-grid solar solutions relatively reasonable and easy to install. The excess energy after utilization is fed back to the grid. As a result, it helps in the effective utilization of the generated voltage and reduction in the power bill since you can sell the surplus power back to the electricity supplier.
