Before You Go Solar – The Honest Guide for Every Indian Rooftop Buyer
India is going solar — faster than ever. Homes and businesses are now turning their roofs into clean-energy generators thanks to strong government support.
But if you’ve ever tried to get a quote for a rooftop solar system, you already know how confusing it can be. One company talks about “zero-cost solar”. Another brand lures you with “pay-per-generation,” while others add “free maintenance, lifetime warranty, subsidy included.”
Sounds great — until you realize half of it isn’t true.
That’s exactly why the book Before You Go Solar exists — to help homeowners, businesses, and institutions cut through the noise and make decisions based on facts, not marketing.
? The Solar Buyer’s Handbook India Needed
It’s India’s only unbiased solar guide written exclusively for customers. Rather than convincing you to buy, it empowers you to choose wisely.
Packed with real examples from on-ground projects, this guide explains:
• How to choose a trustworthy solar company
• What “generation guarantee” really means (and when it’s a trap)
• Why subsidies aren’t always what they seem
• How to calculate your real savings, not just the “brochure numbers”
• The difference between EMI and PPA — and how many buyers get misled by this
If you’ve questioned whether your quote is fair or inflated, this book gives you clarity.
?? The Smart Buyer’s Step Before Saying Yes to Solar
With so many offers around, knowing the facts is your best defense. A large number of buyers regret decisions made without understanding actual system performance.
This guide arms you with an easy-to-follow system to assess proposals, vendors, and warranties. It helps you decode performance numbers, warranty clauses, and tech jargon—no technical background needed.
Think of it as your friendly solar checklist — written by someone who has actually built and monitored real solar plants across India.
? Insights from the Ground, Not the Boardroom
Written by an industry insider with years of EPC experience, this book isn’t theory. Each insight comes from actual project experiences across India’s solar landscape.
Each page is designed to save you time, money, and regret. After installation, it’s not reversible—a solar solar panel buying guide India setup lasts decades.
? Your Solar Company Evaluation Sheet
Selecting your installer is as crucial as selecting your panels. That’s why Before You Go Solar comes with an exclusive Bonus Checklist designed to help you compare multiple solar vendors side by side — apples to apples.
This isn’t a generic list of questions. It’s a field-tested tool that lets you evaluate:
• Whether the company’s generation promise is realistic
• If their warranty and service clauses are clearly defined
• What kind of structure, inverter, and panel quality they’re offering
• Whether they include hidden charges or misleading “zero-cost” schemes
• And most importantly, how to identify red flags before you commit
When multiple sales teams pitch flashy offers, you’ll have a simple matrix to spot the genuine one. This checklist alone can save you lakhs of rupees and ensure you choose not just the lowest quote — but the right one.
