Types of Commercial Solar Systems
On-Grid Solar System
An On-Grid Solar System is a solar setup connected to the utility grid, generating power during the day and sending excess energy back to the grid without needing batteries. It helps lower electricity bills through Gross Metering or Net Feed-in (as per state policy).
Off-Grid Solar System
An off-grid commercial solar system provides independent power solutions for businesses, utilizing solar energy to operate without relying on the public grid. It offers a sustainable, reliable energy source, ideal for remote locations or areas prone to frequent power outages, ensuring uninterrupted operations while reducing electricity costs and carbon footprint.
Hybrid Solar System
A Hybrid Commercial Solar System combines solar power with traditional energy sources and battery storage, ensuring uninterrupted power supply. It maximizes energy savings by utilizing solar energy during the day and stored power during outages or peak times, making it ideal for businesses seeking energy efficiency and reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – On-Grid Home Solar System
1.How much does a commercial solar system cost in India?
Costs vary depending on the system size, location, and installation type. On average, a commercial rooftop solar system may cost around ₹40–₹60 per watt. For example, a 100 kW system could cost between ₹40–₹60 lakhs.
2.How many solar panels are needed for a commercial building?
It depends on your building’s energy usage. For example, a 100 kW solar system typically requires around 250–300 solar panels (depending on panel wattage). A professional site audit can determine the exact number.
3.What is the lifespan of a commercial solar power system?
Most commercial solar systems last 25 years or more with proper maintenance. Inverters typically last 10–15 years and may require replacement during the system’s life cycle.
4.Is government subsidy available for commercial solar projects?
Currently in India, central subsidies are focused on residential rooftop systems. However, some states offer incentives or exemptions for commercial installations. Check with local DISCOMs or state renewable agencies for details.
5.Can I run a commercial building entirely on solar power?
Yes, with a properly sized off-grid or hybrid solar system, your building can operate independently from the grid. Battery storage is essential for full off-grid performance and night-time usage.
6.Do commercial solar systems work during power outages?
Only off-grid and hybrid systems provide backup during outages. On-grid systems shut down during blackouts for safety reasons unless integrated with batteries.
