How does rooftop solar work?
Rooftop solar panels rely on the ability of the solar cells to harness the energy of the sun and convert it to electricity. It is a small, square-shaped semiconductor that is made from conductive materials such as silicon. When sunlight strikes the solar cells, it induces chemical reactions that release the electrons, thus generating electric current.
How rooftop solar
can make you money?
With solar on your roof, your power bills will be massively reduced because you will need less electricity from the grid. The cost of electricity from the grid is expected to rise in the coming years, so your cost savings should also rise! And with a linear power warranty of 27 years, you can expect long-term cost savings from avoiding the cost of expensive electricity from the grid.

Vikram Solar through its integrated Rooftop solar solutions, is leading the charge of India's energy revolution – to take India from depending on traditional forms of energy to being one of the world's solar superpowers.
Business models we offer
Capex model
(Capital Expenditure)
This is the most common business model for solar deployment in India. In this model the consumer purchases the solar system, by making 100% of the payment upfront or financing the system, often through a bank.
OPEX model
Power Purchase Agreement
(Under Net Metering)
Here the RESCO developer invests in solar rooftop asset, and sells the generated power to the building owner in favour of a lower solar power tariff. The excess power could be sold by the building owner to the utility through net metering system.
