About
Visitors can expect a detailed assessment of the property's existing structure and energy needs during an initial consultation. The process involves evaluating the roof's physical characteristics to determine its suitability for solar photovoltaic installation. For homeowners or commercial entities in the New Delhi area, the initial site survey is designed to match the system's potential output with the actual consumption patterns of the building. A key component of the evaluation is the shading analysis, which maps out potential obstructions throughout the day. This analysis helps engineers calculate the maximum achievable energy yield while accounting for shadows cast by surrounding structures or trees. Based on this comprehensive assessment, a realistic kilowatt capacity that the roof can reliably support is established. The resulting recommendation provides a technical scope of work, detailing the optimal placement and size of the array. This initial technical report serves as the basis for system design, ensuring that the installed capacity aligns with the available, unshaded roof space.
