Solar grid system, The tariff charged to commercial establishments in the country is higher than industrial or domestic consumers. The commercial tariff of grid-supplied electricity is at all-time high, with more than 30% increase in just last 3 years. And the tariff is expected to further increase over the coming years. Availability of unused rooftop space combined with increasing commercial tariff and dependence on expensive diesel for back-up power justifies investments in solar power. By making smart choice to go ‘solar’, commercial establishments can utilise the untapped solar power potential of their rooftops to satisfy a large chunk of their energy requirement during the daytime. Not only will the switch to clean energy help to hedge against rising power tariff, it will also help in case of frequent power cuts.

Grid panel, Net metering is a billing mechanism that credits solar energy system owners for the electricity they add to the grid. For example, if a residential customer has a PV system on the home’s rooftop, it may generate more electricity than the home uses during daylight hours. If the home is net-metered, the electricity meter will run backwards to provide a credit against what electricity is consumed at night or other periods where the home’s electricity use exceeds the system’s output. Customers are only billed for their “net” energy use. On average, only 20-40% of a solar energy system’s output ever goes into the grid. Exported solar electricity serves nearby customers’ loads.
