In the past few years, solar panels (PVs), the 'carbon-free' technology that converts sunlight directly into electricity, have grown rapidly. Since rooftop solar is being installed on roofs and building facades in developed countries, PV Modules are becoming an integral part of consumers' daily lives.
People living in sunny countries will increasingly live in solar houses or receive their electricity from large solar power plants. The Solar Power Industry is set for an exciting future in the 21st century because many governments are passionate about promoting renewable electricity as a part of the 21st century's energy mix.
What is a Solar Panel?
The definition of a solar panel according to Wikipedia is a device that converts sunlight into electricity through the use of photovoltaic (PV) cells. Solar panels are made with materials that produce excited electrons when exposed to light. Electrons flow through a circuit and produce direct current (DC) electricity, which can either be used to power devices or stored in batteries. PV modules, solar cell panels, and solar electric panels are all terms used to describe solar panels.
When was Solar Panel started?
Just over 70 years ago, the idea that solar power could leap from powering satellites in space to powering the planet was the vision of only a few people brought together by the shock of the first oil embargo. Today, almost everyone sees solar panels daily. You will know the journey from the sun’s use in the earliest times to tomorrow’s continuum of recyclable materials employed in producing energy from manufactured goods rather than by consuming Mother Earth’s resources.
Benefits of Solar Panel Installation
The benefits of solar panel installation are to solve frequent power cuts in rural areas, to reduce rising electricity bills of homes and businesses as well as to run flour mill & water pump motors directly on solar energy. Some of our consumers are also installing solar panels to generate extra income from their idle rooftops while also contributing to the better future of the nation for the coming generation.
The benefits of solar panels include power cuts, electricity bills, diesel costs, investment opportunities, and pollution reduction.
How to Calculate Electrical Performance of Cells and Modules?
Individual solar cells are hardly ever used on their own. A cell is essentially a low-voltage, high-current device with a typical open-circuit voltage of around 0.5 V, far lower than the operating voltage of most electrical loads and systems. So it is normal for a PV module to contain many series-connected cells, raising the voltage to a more useful level. For example, many manufacturers offer modules with 36 crystalline silicon cells connected in series, suitable for charging 12 V batteries. These modules have an open-circuit voltage Voc of around 20 V and a voltage at the maximum power point (MPP) Vmp of about 17 V, giving a good margin for battery charging, even in weak sunlight. As PV moves increasingly towards high-power grid-connected systems, the trend is for more cells per module giving higher output voltages.
What happens when many cells are connected in series? The answer would be very straightforward, assuming that all the cells are identical and exposed to the same strength of sunlight: with n cells in series, the module voltage would be n times the cell voltage, and the module current would be the same as the cell current.
What are the parameters for PV Module Testing?
Not surprisingly, most of the electrical parameters of a PV module closely reflect those of its solar cells. However, the efficiency of a module, measured in standard conditions of bright sunlight (1000 W/m2 at 25 degrees C, AM1.5 spectrum), is slightly less than that of the constituent cells because the cells do not fill the module’s area and there are small power losses as sunlight passes through the top cover and encapsulant. As an example, we now consider a module containing 144 TOPCon cells with a peak power rating of 575 Wp, a popular size and power rating. The following module parameters are at the low end of the range of commercial modules in the market today:
Nominal power | 570-700 Wp |
Open-circuit voltage | 50.50 V |
Short-circuit voltage | 14.30 A |
Voltage at maximum power | 43.0 V |
Current at maximum power | 13.38 A |
Power reduction per degree C | 0.45% |
Voltage reduction per degree C | 0.33% |
Length | 2278 mm |
Width | 1134 mm |
Weight | 32.5 kg |
Efficiency | 22.30% |
How is electricity generated from solar panels?
If you are planning to know about solar panel systems, then you should know how electricity is generated from solar panels. It is a most common question by a consumer. So let’s understand! Suppose you have a small solar panel that generates electricity. When you put this solar panel in sunlight, then it generates DC. Simply put, you can run any DC appliances, such as bulbs, lights, and motors. It works successfully. Generally, we use clamp metres for solar panel output testing.
What is the new policy for solar rooftops in India in 2024?
As per the current population, India has approx. 34 crore homes (total population ~ 139 crore). According to the latest information by our government, they have a plan to install solar rooftops in 1 crore homes through the subsidy scheme. They have officially announced that every solar consumer will get a Rs. 50,000 subsidy amount. It’s great news for residential consumers. But the main question is, how many homes are eligible for the subsidy scheme? According to solar professionals, 75% of homes have a 1 kW sanctioned load, and 25% of homes have a 3 kW or above sanctioned load. That means only 25% of homes (8.5 crore homes) are eligible for solar subsidy schemes.
How do solar panels work?
Many consumers want to know how solar panels work. So, we have gained in-depth knowledge about this topic. According to the ResearchGate research website, "the amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation is called solar energy. Shown in Fig. 1. It is radiant light and heat from the sun that is a natural source of energy that uses a range of ever-changing and developing technology such as solar thermal energy, solar architecture, solar heating, molten salt power plants, and artificial photosynthesis. The large magnitude of solar power available makes it a highly appealing source of electricity. 30% (approx.) of solar radiation is back in space while the rest is absorbed by the oceans, clouds, and land masses.
PV cells convert sunlight to Direct Current (DC) electricity. A solar inverter or charge controller works to control the power from the solar panel, which reverses back to the solar panel to get the cause of panel damage. Battery systems act as storage of electric power used when sunlight is not available (i.e., at night). This system is connected to the inverter to convert Direct Current (DC) into Alternating Current (AC).
The cells convert solar radiation directly into electricity. It consists of various kinds of semiconductor materials. It has two types: positive charge and negative charge, shown in Fig. 1. This cell technology is used to design solar cells with a low cost as well as high conversion efficiency. When the cell absorbs photons from sunlight, electrons are knocked free from silicon atoms that are drawn off by a grid of metal conductors, which pressure a flow of electric direct current. Solar cell PV is made up of many chemicals."
The solar panel generates DC power during the day whenever adequate solar radiation is available. This DC power is maximised by an MPPT Charge Controller unit. Part of it is directly fed to an AC load through a charge controller (DC to DC converter) and an inverter, while the remaining power is fed through the charge controller to the battery bank and stored. It is withdrawn from the battery bank when required (usually when adequate solar radiation is not available in the daylight hours) and fed to a DC-DC converter. The DC-DC converter is in turn connected to an inverter, and the resulting AC power is connected to the load.
Types of Solar Panels in India
The technology of solar panels is changing year-on-year across the world. In the last 6 years, solar panel wattages have gone from 250W to 575W. In 2018, the maximum wattage of 24V solar panels was 250 W, but in 2024, it increased to 575 W. Generally, there are two main types of solar panels in India: Polycrystalline and Monocrystalline. For the last 2 years, manufacturing of polycrystalline modules has stopped, and now the solar industry has switched to monocrystalline, mono perc, mono perc bifacial, and TOPCon PV modules.
In India, there are two main types of solar panels: monofacial and bifacial.
1. Bifacial Solar Panel: It is the latest technology solar panels which generate electricity from both sides – front & back side.
2. DCR Solar Panel: The DCR solar panel is comprised of components such as solar cells, that are all made in India. On installing the solar panels, the Indian government provides a subsidy of up to 40%. Loom Solar is an Indian-origin solar company, which introduced 520W Mono perc, 10 Bus Bar Half cut technology solar panel in India, which can generate more power from compact space. This solar panel is only installed with an on-grid solar system for which the Indian government has provided a national rooftop solar portal.
3. TOPCon Solar Panel: TOPCon (Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact) technology is the trending solar cell technology that aims at increasing solar panel efficiency. The solar industry is witnessing rapid advancements in technology aimed towards achieving higher efficiency and better performance of solar components.

How much does it Cost to Install Solar Panels at Home?
An installation of home solar panels starts at Rs. 50,000, where you convert your existing inverter battery into one that uses solar power. A small solar system can run essential household appliances such as fans, coolers, lights, and mobile chargers, but if you plan to install a one-kilowatt solar panel, your investment will be higher. A unit costing between Rs. 60,000 and Rs. 1,00,000 can run all household appliances except air conditioners and water pumps.
Generally, rooftop solar has mainly two types: Grid-connected Solar System & Off Grid Solar System. If any consumer wants to install rooftop solar through the Government Subsidy Scheme - PM Surya Ghar then will install a connected Solar System and get a 32,000 subsidy amount for a 1kW solar system. That means the cost of solar panel installation for domestic purposes is rs. 50,000 to 2,00,000 based on solar system types, and installation quality.
As we know the initial investment of a solar rooftop is high but we provide solar loan facilities for any type of solar system. The consumer needs to pay only a 20% down payment and the rest of the payment will be paid in monthly instalments.
Features of a Solar Panel
There are broadly 5 features in a solar panel that are available in the Indian Markets.
#1. Cell Technology – Mono Crystalline Solar cells are the purest raw material to make Solar PV Module, the Power generation is higher for Mono Perk Crystalline cells in sunny, cloudy, and monsoon weather.
#2. Module Size – Smaller Solar panels will occupy less space on the rooftop. Hence, a smaller size solar panel will cost more,
#3. Frame thickness – After Solar Cells, frame thickness is the second raw material that impacts on the build quality of a solar panel. A Solar panel may have a 30 mm – 45 mm frame thickness made of Aluminum structure.
#4. Connecting wires - Solar panels are connected in either Series or parallel connection to make an array, An Array is a form in which multiple solar panels are connected, Hence, the solar must come with at least a 1-meter wire and with IP 68 Junction box that makes it water and dustproof.
#5. Unbreakable Glass- A solar pane will have solar cells, an aluminium frame, and transparent glass, The foldable solar panel will have foldable glass that has fewer chances to break.
Are bifacial solar panels worth it?
Bifacial solar panels are the latest technology solar panels that generate electricity from both sides of the panel – front & back side. The solar cell construction of this solar panel is different from polycrystalline and monocrystalline solar panels. They offer many advantages over traditional solar panels. These can be framed or frameless solar panels.
How to Install Solar Panels at Home?
Solar panels should be installed by professional installers. Any mistake in installing solar panels will lead to lesser efficiency and loss in power generation.
The standard solar panel installation cost is between ₹10 to ₹15 per watt depending upon location, the distance between the panel and inverter, and whether the installation is off in the on-grid solar system or off-grid solar system. We have installed solar panels in over 50,000 homes across India. Here is the list of solar panel installation stories with unique applications.
How to connect a 24v solar panel to a 12v battery?
The selection of solar panels is based on voltage range, which is available in 10W, 20W, 40W, 50W, 75W, 125W, and 200W with 12V solar panels, which are used to charge a single battery of 12V. But for double inverter battery (24V inverter battery), a 24V solar panel will be used. Loom Solar provides 24V Shark 445 Mono Perc, Shark 550W, Mono Per, Bifacial, Shark 550 W Solar Panel, and 520W DCR Solar Panels.
A solar panel is used for battery charging and saving electricity bills for homes and offices. A battery is a collection of cells that stores power. All lead acid batteries come in 12V and are rechargeable batteries. Now, the basic concept of battery and solar panels is 12V battery should be charged by a 24V solar panel. But there is some confusion – if we need to connect the solar panel and battery directly, then the battery will get damaged after full charge. Here, we can use a charge controller or inverter.
How many solar panels are needed to run a house?
People prefer to install a solar system for its low maintenance and low electricity bill. Many standalone houses are now going solar as monthly electricity bills are high. For a 3-4 bhk house running a refrigerator, washing machine, 3-4 light/ bulbs, fans, iron, etc. 4 Shark solar panels (22% efficiency level) will be enough. A 2.5 kVA solar system (one inverter and two batteries) is generally enough for such houses.
Maintenance of Solar Panels
Solar panels are low-maintenance products, however, it is important to clean solar panels regularly to clear off the dust particles that accumulate on them. A Cleaner solar panel might generate up to 25% more power. The cost of maintaining solar panels is near zero (0) or a few hundred rupees a year. Most solar panels have silicon cells laminated and framed on them which ensures long life and less maintenance. Cleaning and washing solar panels are a must for longevity and retaining efficiency.
- Keep Solar panels out of the shade
- The best way to clean the solar panel is by using soft cloths, shampoo, or detergent
- Clean in a way that it may not scratch the glass

Solar Panels - Question & Answers
#1. How many KW Solar Panels do I need for my home?
The selection of solar panels depends on two factors:
a) In Case of Power Failures - The solar panels require 3 times of battery Capacity, so for example, if you have 2 batteries of 150 Ah in your home, you should install 3* 150 Ah = 450 watts of solar panels.
b) In the case of Saving Electricity Bill - Look at your power bills and check how many units you consumed during a month, let's assume, 300 units (kWH) in a month, so solar panels requirement will be Solar Panel Requirement = Total power consumption in a month (kWH) / 30 days *4 units power generation per kW. So, in this case, it should be 300/30 *4 = 2.5 kW, i.e. 2500 watts.
#2. Does Solar Panel Work During the Night or Monsoon?
Solar panels will produce comparatively less energy during monsoon. More sunlight better your solar panel works. Shades, clouds, and monsoons do affect the performance of solar panels. The amount of electricity is directly related to the amount of sunlight that falls on solar panels.
Solar panels will produce comparatively less energy during monsoon. More sunlight can better your solar panel working. Shades, clouds, and monsoons do affect the performance of solar panels. The amount of electricity is directly related to the amount of sunlight that falls on solar panels.
#3. What is the Average Lifespan of a Solar Panel?
Most solar panels come with 25 25-year warranty in India. However, the lifespan of a solar panel can go up to 30 years depending upon brand and quality.
#4. How much 1 kW solar panel power generates and how much space it takes in the installation?
1 kW = 1000 watts, 1 kW solar panel generates on an average 4 kWh in a day depending upon weather conditions, in a sunny day it might generate up to 5 Units, while in winter or cloudy weather, the power generation could be lower up to 3 units a day.
1 kWH = 1 unit = 1000 watt
A solar panel has a standard length of 2 meters and a width of 1 meter. Installation of 1 kW solar panel requires 2 solar modules, the space taken by 1 kW solar panels shall be
Solar panel size * No. of panels
= (2 meter * 1 meters) * 2 panels = 4 square meters.
#5. How Much Money Will I Save with Solar Panels?
1000 watts panel will save around ₹1000 per month on average. More the number of panels more electricity you can produce which will result in more savings. A 1kVa on-grid system can save around ₹1500 per month.
#6. Can the solar panel be installed without an Inverter and battery for day use?
Solar panel is a source of DC electricity, and the appliances such as Fan, Televisions, and lights that we use in our home is AC, 230 volts (alternating current) electricity, DC power can be used directly with solar panels while using AC electricity, It is must use Inverters.
#7. Can I run a ceiling fan directly from solar panels during the daytime?
Solar generates a direct form of electricity, to use a fan on solar, an inverter is a must, a Fan cannot be used directly from solar panels.
#8. How the efficiency of the solar panel is calculated?
The efficiency of the solar panel is the way to calculate the density of the solar module. For example, you have a solar panel that is 1 meter long and 1 meter wide and produces 1000 watts, this would be called 100% efficiency of solar panels.
The Formula for calculating solar panel efficiency is
Efficiency % = (Power)/ (Length) * (Width) * (1000 watt / sq. meter)
Power – the power rating of solar panels in watts.
Length and width- the size of solar panels
1000 watt / sq. meter is sunlight available at your home
Here is the example to calculate Loom Solar 400-watt solar panel efficiency (400 watts) / (2-meter length) * (1-meter width) * (1000 watt / sq. meter) = 20% i.e. the efficiency of a 400-watt solar panel is 20%.
