Data Sources & Assumptions
Solar Radiation Data
Solar insolation values are sourced from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) databases for different states in India.
Solar Panel Performance Ratio
We use an industry average of 75.00% efficiency for solar panels, with a typical range between 70.00% and 85.00% depending on the technology and manufacturer.
Installation Costs
The average cost of residential solar installation in India ranges from ₹44,500 to ₹77,000 per kW, with an average of ₹50,000 per kW used in our calculations.
Carbon Emissions
Carbon emission calculations use India's grid emission factor of 1.05 kg CO₂/kWh based on the Integrated Climate Initiatives' Emission Factor Database (ICI-EFDB) database.
