Your Essential Pre-Solar Handbook – What Every Rooftop Buyer in India Should Know
Across the country, the solar wave is growing stronger by the day. Rooftops across cities are turning into mini power stations, and the government’s push toward renewable energy has made it easier than ever to install a solar plant.
Anyone who has tried to request a solar quotation knows how overwhelming the jargon can get. One vendor markets a “zero-cost” dream. 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.
Hence, Before You Go Solar was created—to replace confusion with clarity for everyone exploring solar power.
? The Solar Buyer’s Handbook India Needed
Before You Go Solar is India’s first independent solar handbook written from a customer’s point of view. Rather than convincing you to buy, it empowers you to choose wisely.
Drawing from actual solar installations, it breaks down key lessons:
• 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 ever wondered, “Am I getting the right deal?” or “Is this company overselling?” — this book answers that.
?? The Smart Buyer’s Step Before Saying Yes to Solar
In a fast-growing solar industry, awareness is your greatest safeguard. Too many customers lose money trusting marketing claims over real output.
Before You Go Solar gives you a simple framework to evaluate any proposal, vendor, or guarantee. You’ll learn to read solar quotes like a pro, without needing engineering expertise.
Consider it your go-to guide—authored by a professional who has built, run, and analyzed real installations.
? From Field Experience to Pages
Authored by a professional with hands-on EPC background, the book offers reality, not rhetoric. It comes straight from real rooftops — from Delhi to Pune — where installations succeed, fail, and teach lessons worth sharing.
Every chapter is meant to help you avoid costly errors and wasted time. After installation, it’s not reversible—a solar setup lasts decades.
? Your Solar Company Evaluation Sheet
Solar success depends less on hardware and more on how to choose a solar company in India who installs it. The book provides a ready-to-use checklist for comparing multiple quotations fairly.
It’s not a theoretical worksheet but a proven field guide to assess:
• 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
So when three vendors show up with fancy presentations and confusing quotations, you’ll have one clear way to decide who’s actually giving the better deal. This checklist alone can save you lakhs of rupees and ensure you choose not just the lowest quote — but the right one.
