Solar system of 1kW

If you are bothered by electricity bills and frequent power cuts in summer, then you can also install a solar system on your roof, which will be a good solution to your problem. By installing this system, you can run fans, TV, air conditioner, cooler, phone charging and other appliances without any hassle. In this article we will talk about a 1 kW solar system and how much it costs to install it.

Types of solar system

There are two types of solar systems: on-grid and off-grid. On-grid solar systems do not use batteries, while off-grid systems do. If you plan to install a 1 kW solar system in your home, you will need to choose an off-grid system as there are no on-grid options available for this capacity.

How many devices can you use on a 1 kW system?

This 1 kW system allows you to run appliances like 3-4 fans, 6-8 BLDC fans, TV, 8 to 10 LED lights, laptop and phone charging, mixer grinder and refrigerator.

If you want to use an air conditioner, you will need a solar system with a capacity of more than 1 kilowatt. Moreover, with this system you can easily run a 1 hp solar pump during the day. You can also use a 250 or 500 watt submersible pump. The solar panels in this system have a 25-year warranty.

How much power does a 1 kW solar energy system produce?

The daily energy production of a 1 kW solar system depends on the intensity and amount of sunlight falling on it. Solar panels generate more electricity in the summer and less electricity during the monsoon due to cloud cover. A 1 kilowatt solar system can generate approximately 5 units of electricity per day all year round.

Installation costs of a 1 kilowatt solar system

There are two main types of solar panels on the market: monocrystalline and polycrystalline. Monocrystalline panels are slightly more expensive, but provide higher efficiency and better performance. Monocrystalline panels are a better choice for residential installation.

The price for a 1 kW monocrystalline solar panel will be around ₹25,000 to ₹40,000. For a complete 1 kW solar system, you will need two solar batteries (12 volts, 150 Ah), which cost approximately ₹15,000 x 2 = ₹30,000. In addition, you also need an inverter, grounding, structure and other accessories that increase the cost of the system. The total cost of installing a 1 kW solar system ranges from ₹70,000 to ₹85,000.
