5 Myths About Solar Energy in India

 


The sun is an incredible, alternative and renewable energy source providing fuel for life on Earth with clean and sustainable energy. Solar energy is convertible to solar energy through solar photovoltaic modules. This resource is expanding rapidly as more and more people discover the truth about solar energy and have rooftop solar systems installed in their homes and workplaces. The system is very cost effective and can save up to 80% of your electricity bills every month.


However, there are many misconceptions about solar energy and the belief that it is expensive, complicated, unreliable, etc. Many of these dispel the big persistent myths about solar energy.

Myth #1: Solar panels only work in the sun.

The most common myth is that solar panels do not work in special weather conditions and need clear sunny days for solar radiation to make sense. This is not true, in fact some places with extremely cold and cloudy conditions, such as Germany, are one of the world leaders in solar energy systems, producing more solar energy than the United States. This is because solar panels need sunlight, but not its heat, to absorb energy and generate electricity. Rooftop solar systems are efficient enough to work even in cold or monsoon conditions. As long as some sunlight hits the Earth, solar technology can be put to good use rain or snow. So even if you live in the coldest regions of the country and want to use a sustainable resource and save a healthy amount of money every month, Go Solar without being overshadowed by any myth.



Myth #2: It's expensive.

No, it's not true, in fact, the price of solar panels has dropped considerably over the past few years. More and more home and commercial owners are choosing to go solar, and as demand increases, competition among solar company’s increases, ultimately resulting in low prices for the customer. Also, the central and state governments now have various leasing options to enable home owners to go solar with zero upfront costs and savings on their energy bills every month. Not to mention the many buyback options that lead to financial savings in the long run. So it will save you a lot in the long run.




Myth #3: Solar panels are not energy efficient enough.

There is a perception that solar panels are not efficient enough to power the main grids in a house or heavy pieces of equipment used in industry Again we can debunk this myth by showing you that some of the big commercial houses in India depend on solar power supply for all their production needs. Experts dealing with solar power energy systems have said that the efficiency of a solar cell even under normal sunlight is good enough to keep all heavy machinery working at maximum capacity. Additionally, it should be noted that the US military is one of the largest users of solar energy and relies on the reliable energy technology to power its bases at home and abroad.



Myth #4: A solar panel system is durable.

Solar panels are very reliable because they have no moving parts to wear out. Most panels produce electricity for many years and at MSYUN we offer a 25-year warranty. In fact, first of all, in many Western countries, solar systems installed in the late 1970s are still generating power today. So now you can imagine how reliable solar power could be.




Myth #5: Installation is complicated. 

Installation is not the case.
