 WHY SOLAR ?

Clean, Free & Independent Source of Energy

Sustainable
Does not cause greenhouse gas emission/ air pollution

Provide electricity to remote places

 SOLAR ENERGY TO POWER
Photovoltaic Solar
Thin wafer consisting
phosphorous doped (N type) silicon
on top of a thicker layer of boron
doped (P- type) silicon.
An electric field is created near the
top surface of the cell where these
two materials are in contact (the P-
N junction).
When sun light strikes the surface
of PV cell, this electrical field results
in a flow of current when the cell is
connected to an electrical load.
Solar Thermal
of Concentrated solar power (CSP)
systems generate solar power by
using mirrors or lenses to
concentrate suns light energy and
convert it into heat
The converted heat is used to
create steam to drive turbine that
generates electrical power
SOLAR PV SYSTEM COMPONENTS
TYPES OF SOLAR MODULES
MONO CRYSTALLINE
Most expensive
Maximum efficiency (18%~20%)

POLY/ MULTI-CRYSTALLINE
Less Expensive
Good efficiency (~16%)

THIN FILM
Least Expensive
Lest Efficient (~10%)
NET METERING
 BENEFITS OF ROOF TOP SOLAR PV
No additional land required

Better rate of return

No direct heating of the roof- reduced air conditioning cost

Reduced installation cost

Good upkeep of the roof

Reduced dust problems- better power generation

The cost of the plant is recovered in 5~6 years.
Free benefits for next 15~20 years.
Plant IRR for 10 years > 16%, for 25 years > 20
Govt subsidy available for Residential/ educational projects
The plant can be shifted/ sold if space is to be utilized for some other purpose/ the
energy demand in the future falls
60% depreciation of the plant can be claimed in 1st year

OPEX MODEL
Plant ownership and O&M by others.
The energy tariff < Govt. tariff as on date but pre-defined for next 25 years.
The DISCOM tariff unpredictable for such a long period
Issues may arise in future due to tariff rates/ change in govt policy
60% depreciation in first year cannot be claimed
The space in the premises is occupied and cannot be used for other purpose
