Solar Rooftop

A solar rooftop system is one of the most effective and eco-friendly ways to generate electricity directly from the sun. These systems involve installing photovoltaic (PV) panels on the rooftops of residential, commercial, institutional, or industrial buildings. The panels absorb sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity, which is then transformed into alternating current (AC) through an inverter for use in homes or buildings. Any surplus energy generated can either be stored in batteries for backup or exported to the power grid, depending on the type of system—on-grid, off-grid, or hybrid.

Solar rooftops bring a wide range of benefits. They reduce electricity bills, ensure energy independence, and minimize environmental impact by lowering carbon emissions. Once installed, they require minimal maintenance and have a long operational life, often exceeding 25 years. Additionally, government initiatives like the PM Surya Ghar Yojana and KSEB’s Soura Subsidy have made solar rooftops more affordable for common households by offering substantial financial support and simplified procedures. With rising energy costs and growing awareness about sustainability, solar rooftops are becoming a practical and smart investment for the future—empowering users to harness the sun’s power right from their own roofs.
