Despite the growing popularity of solar power in India, many myths and misconceptions still prevent people from making the switch. At PVSUN INNOVATIONS, we believe informed decisions lead to better outcomes—so we’re clearing the air on some of the most common solar myths.
🌥️ Myth #1: “Solar doesn’t work on cloudy or rainy days.”
Fact: Solar panels can still generate electricity even when it’s cloudy or overcast—just at a reduced efficiency. Karnataka, with over 280 sunny days a year, is ideal for solar power generation.
💡 Myth #2: “Solar panels will power my home during a power cut.”
Fact: Grid-connected solar systems shut down during a power outage to protect utility workers. To have backup during outages, you’ll need a hybrid solar system with battery storage—and yes, we offer that too.
🛠️ Myth #3: “Solar panels require a lot of maintenance.”
Fact: Solar panels are low-maintenance. Occasional cleaning (every 2–4 weeks) and an annual check-up are usually all that’s needed. We also offer AMC (Annual Maintenance Contracts) for worry-free service.
🏘️ Myth #4: “I need a big house or roof to install solar.”
Fact: You don’t need a huge roof—just a shadow-free space of 100 sq. ft. per kW. Our team designs compact, efficient systems that work on all types of residential and commercial rooftops.
💰 Myth #5: “Solar is too expensive.”
Fact: Thanks to government subsidies (up to ₹78,000 for residential systems under the PM Surya Ghar Yojana), and falling panel prices, solar is more affordable than ever. Plus, it pays for itself in just a few years.
☠️ Myth #6: “Solar panels will damage my roof.”
Fact: Solar mounting structures are designed to protect, not damage your roof. In many cases, they extend the life of the roof by shielding it from rain and sun exposure.
⏳ Myth #7: “It’s too late to go solar.”
Fact: The best time to go solar is now. As tariffs increase and subsidies continue, early adopters reap the biggest savings. Solar is a long-term investment that starts paying off from day one.
