Before You Go Solar: The No-Nonsense Guide Every Rooftop Buyer in India Needs

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.
But if you’ve ever tried to get a quote for a rooftop solar system, you already know how confusing it can be. One company talks about “zero-cost solar”. Others claim “free servicing,” “lifetime guarantee,” and “subsidy assured.”
Everything looks perfect—until you learn what’s really behind the marketing.
That’s precisely why Before You Go Solar was written—to empower buyers with truth, not taglines.
? Finally, a Solar Guide That Tells You the Truth
It’s India’s only unbiased solar guide written exclusively for customers. 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 questioned whether your quote is fair or inflated, this book gives you clarity.
?? Read This Before You Commit to Any Solar Deal
With so many offers around, knowing the facts is your best defense. A large number of buyers regret decisions made without understanding actual system performance.
This guide arms you with an easy-to-follow system to assess proposals, vendors, and warranties. It explains how to compare generation, understand warranties, and make sense of all the confusing technical terms — without being an engineer.
Think of it as your friendly solar checklist — written by someone who has actually built and monitored real solar plants across India.
? Real Rooftop Lessons Turned Into a Book
Written by an industry insider with years of EPC experience, this book isn’t theory. Its lessons come directly from rooftops across cities like Delhi and Pune, where every success and mistake became a learning.
The entire book focuses on protecting your investment and peace of mind. After installation, it’s not reversible—a solar setup solar handbook India lasts decades.
? Your Solar Company Evaluation Sheet
Buying solar isn’t just about panels — it’s about choosing the right people to install them. That’s why Before You Go Solar comes with an exclusive Bonus Checklist designed to help you compare multiple solar vendors side by side — apples to apples.
This isn’t a generic list of questions. It’s a field-tested tool that lets you evaluate:
• 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
When multiple sales teams pitch flashy offers, you’ll have a simple matrix to spot the genuine one. This checklist alone can save you lakhs of rupees and ensure you choose not just the lowest quote — but the right one.
