Choosing out the best solar panel for your home or business is not always easy. With new tech, ever changing government policies and a large variety of panel type’s available consumers see terms such as “DCR, “bifacial” and “efficiency ratings” which they do not fully understand.
At Karma Tech we are out to make solar energy easy and visible for you which in turn will give you the confidence to invest. We have put together this guide which goes into each panel type in detail, talks about what they have to offer and which one we think is the best for your roof.
1. What is Domestic Content in solar panels?
DCR which stands for Domestic Content Requirement includes solar panels that are completely made in India from the cells to the modules. Also these panels are what customers will require if they wish to apply for government rooftop solar subsidies which DCR compliance is a very large part of.
Why DCR Panels Are Beneficial
- They are eligible for national and state subsidies.
- Support Make-in-India manufacturing
- Improve quality control and traceability.
- Offer reliable after-sales service through domestic suppliers
Karma-Tech’s Role
Karma-Tech provides MNRE approved DCR compliant solar panels for residential and commercial subsidy programs. If you are looking to go solar on your roof through government schemes we at Karma Tech have DCR panels which make the process easy and complete.
2. What are dual face solar panels?
Bifacial panels generate power from both sides of the panel, the front which is for direct sun light and the back which is for reflected light off the ground and roof tops also. We see this is an improved design in terms of energy output which also does not take up more space.
Key Benefits of Bifacial Panels
- Higher daily electricity generation
- Reflective surfaces which include tiles, cement, and white painted roofs.
- Great long term option for open and sunny areas.
- Ideal for tall buildings and industrial settings.
When to Choose Bifacial Panels
If your roof is not shaded, has good airflow and a sun reflective surface, solar bifacial panels for you will see up to a 15% increase in energy production which also may vary based on your site’s specific conditions.
3. Renewable Energy’s Performance Issue.
Solar panel performance is a measure of how well they convert sun light into electricity. The higher the efficiency the more power you get from the same area.
Why Efficiency Ratings Matter
- Important for small roof spaces.
- Improves performance in cloudy, dusty, or low light conditions.
- Ensures better long-term performance
- Reduces degradation over time
Today high performance panels which report an output of 19% to 22% efficiency are what customers are looking for as they aim to get the maximum energy out of the smallest space.
Karma-Tech’s Standard
We offer high-efficiency monocrystalline panels with: We present monocrystalline panels which:
- A 25-year performance warranty
- Low degradation rates
- Strong performance in Odisha’s heat and humidity.
- High output in all seasons.
4. Choosing Between DCR, Bifacial & High-Efficiency Panels
Understanding what works best for your roof which in turn helps you choose the right technology:.
- If for what you are looking to claim from the government it is a subsidy then DCR panels are the right choice.
- If you have a small roof but still want maximum output go for high efficiency panels.
- If you have room to spare, plenty of sun, and a reflective surface then bifacial panels will for you greater production without at the same time increasing your install space.
- If you have a big roof and are looking for a budget solution, standard monofacial panels also do the trick.
Karma-Tech’s Approach to Recommendation
Instead of pushing one style of panel our engineers:.
- Check out your site conditions.
- Check out electricity use.
- Assess shading and roof structure.
- Recommend which panel type for best long term savings.
The aim is to go beyond just solar installation to achieve 25 years of energy independence.
