The prices of solar components keep rising 

The prices of solar components may increase over time. The sooner you act, the more you save – on equipment and energy bills!

Monsoons only slow down power generation, they don’t stop it

A solar panel generates at least 7-8 units of electricity on a sunny day. However, on cloudy and rainy days, solar panels can still generate electricity from diffuse sunlight. While the efficiency is lower compared to sunny days, the panels are not entirely inactive.

Regularly maintaining and cleaning your solar panels can help boost the electricity generation capacity. 

Rainfall plays a crucial role in naturally cleaning solar panels 

Rainfall naturally tackles dirt build-up on solar panels. However, this is just surface-level cleaning and maintenance. You need to partner with a solar company that offers solar panel maintenance services that guarantee timely debris removal. 

Solar Panels Are Built to Handle rain

Solar panels are designed to withstand various weather conditions, including rain. They are built with durable, waterproof materials, robust frames, and high IP ratings to resist water ingress. 

Proper installation and regular maintenance ensure long-term durability and performance. Advanced monitoring and warranties from reputable manufacturers further guarantee their resilience in rainy conditions.

Maintaining your solar panels during the monsoon season

Regular professional cleaning and maintenance, as scheduled with your solar panel maintenance partner, are essential. The process includes the following steps.

1. Consistently monitor the system’s output. Significant variations from the average during rainy days should be investigated promptly.
2. During stormy weather, have your installer frequently inspect the area for any damage, loose connections, or debris accumulation.
3. Ensure no nearby branches or trees obstruct sunlight from reaching the panels. Trim or prune them to maintain clear access to the sun’s rays.

Tips to ensure solar panel system safety during the monsoon season

Safety measures aren’t necessary if you’ve installed the right premium-quality solar panel system on your rooftop. However, you can take the following precautions. These tips largely depend on your solar panel maintenance partner and routine.

1. Ensure the solar panel structure is properly grounded. 
2. Confirm that all electrical connections and components are secure to prevent water from entering. 
3. Inspect the solar panels regularly for any signs of damage, such as cracks or loose screws.

FAQs

Q1. Will my solar panel system generate power when there is no sun and only rain?

Ans. Yes! Even during rainy days, plenty of diffuse sunlight allows solar panels to generate electricity.

Q2. Will rain damage the solar panels?

Ans. No! Solar panels are built with materials designed to protect against rainwater from entering. Additionally, rain helps clean the panels, improving their efficiency.

Q3. What about rusting and corrosion of the solar panel structure during heavy rains?

Ans. Most solar panel structures are prone to rust over time. However, SolarSquare’s Intelligent WindPro MountTM 2.0 uses virgin steel from reputable brands like JSW, Essar, and Tata, and features an HDGI 80-micron rust-free coating to prevent rust and corrosion.

Q4. Is it cheaper to install solar panels during the monsoon season?

Ans. This can vary depending on the vendor. Check with your vendor for any monsoon offers or discounts that may be available.

Q5. Does rain help maintain the solar panels?

Ans. Rain provides surface-level cleaning but does not offer the comprehensive maintenance required to ensure optimal performance. Regular professional maintenance is still necessary.

Q6. How does the monsoon affect the installation timeline?

Ans. Heavy rains can potentially delay the installation process. Generally, solar panel installation and commissioning take 30 days minimum, considering the time needed for subsidy approvals, loan processing, and other factors.

Q7. Is there any production loss of solar panels during the monsoon season?

Ans. There may be a production loss of about 10-20%, but solar panels will continue to generate electricity as usual.
