What makes you a good solar panel consumer?

With the advent of modern techniques and possible developments in tools and work ethics, the solar industry in India has seen some exponential rise in the past few years. A lot of startups have come up with new ideologies and techniques which had given rise to potential consumers. Since the industry has seen some enormous growth, the expectations of consumers also increased in terms of solar products. One of the products, where the most important aspect is the customer experience and could not be compromised is the solar rooftop residential panel. But, how do you pick the best solar rooftop panel for your house? Is the price viable? Will it affect the financial strategy of the household and save some of your electricity bills? These are some of the valiant questions answered in this blog you can get if you are one of the potential buyers of a solar electricity panel. 

What do Monocrystalline and Polycrystalline Panels have in store for you?

In a different blog, I have explained the significance of monocrystalline and polycrystalline solar panels. The significance of monocrystalline and polycrystalline panels is that they will save you money on your electric bill. But determining which of the panels are better for you depends upon your expectation of the solar system, you are going to install on your rooftop.  

One of the foremost things which you need to consider is the expenditure you are going to make on the solar rooftops. Comparing the above two aforementioned kinds of solar panels, Polycrystalline panels will cost less than monocrystalline solar panels. Thus, the former has an economic edge over the other. But, on the other hand, monocrystalline solar panels are better looking. So, if you are concerned with the aesthetics of your system, I suggest you go with the monocrystalline ones. 

Solar Rooftops take up a lot of space in your household. Thus, to make your installation one of the successful ones, you need to think about the space you and your family members will consume, along with the space left vacated for your solar rooftops. If you own a small roof, monocrystalline panels will be an amazing choice. Monocrystalline panels are more efficient and their productivity increase in confined spaces. Thus, solar pundits always vouch for installing monocrystalline solar rooftops if you own a flat or a small house. 

Does the efficiency of solar panels have a direct effect on the size of the system?

The efficiency of the solar panels might sometimes depend on the size of the panels, but it generally does not. Panels with high efficiency allow you to install the better and the premium ones while producing the same amount of electricity. 

Let us take an example of two varied cases in installing solar panels. A and B have installed solar panels but, they are of the same size and capacity. The number of panels that have been installed in the case of solar rooftops is around 12. The solar systems are of the same size, but B has installed solar panels which are rated of premium category. The resultant of the premium category solar panels will be of 6kW, while the solar electricity generation capacity of the non-premium one would range around 4.7kW. This is kind of a ready reckoner that since the solar panels are of premium values, the cost of both, buying and installing will be quite higher. 

A look into a comparison of standard efficiency and premium efficiency

The last paragraph of the blog has brought in a kind of controversy with itself. Are premium efficient panels more efficient than their standard counterparts? If so, why does the standard panel are in use by most of the solar consumers? The reason why solar rooftops with standard efficiency stand out is the money factor and the space consumed by it. On the other hand, premium efficiency panels are more expensive than standard efficiency panels.

Well, the adversity of solar panels has increased leaps and bounds in the past. A Gurgaon based startup ZunRoof has emerged as one of the frontrunners in taking the solar industry forward. It has expanded its wings to around 70 cities in India, with amazingly satisfied consumers.
