Is installing a PV rooftop solar unit a viable option? How?

Yes, installing a rooftop solar power is a viable option. There are many reasons why you should opt for it.

#Saves #money

First and foremost, it massively reduces your power bill, because you need less electricity from the grid. Rooftop solar power installation starts saving you money as soon as you get it installed and connect it to your supply.

It is a secure investment

The tariffs for grid power increase each year. Around the world the grid power tariffs increase between 8 to 12% annually. So once you have installed your solar unit, the savings that you make also increase with each passing year.

It provides a #backup to an unstable grid supply

It increases access to energy in places where supply is not stable. There are many places around the world which face the problem of erratic grid supply and people are forced to rely on alternates like diesel generators. A rooftop solar provides an affordable source of electricity.

It has a low maintenance cost

Solar rooftop units have a low maintenance cost. The panels come with a service life of 25 years. In case off-grid systems the maintenance cost would include cost of maintaining the battery which would make the bulk of the maintenance cost.

Green source of energy

This alternate source of energy is totally renewable. So this benefits us in not only reducing our power cost but also our carbon footprint.

Support from the government

Many places you get tax credits from government if you adopt solar energy. Also certain governments provide #subsidy on the installation cost.

It doesn’t require additional space

One of the other big advantages of a rooftop system is that you don’t need to buy land to set up the unit. It utilizes your rooftop.
