What are the pros and cons of solar energy? Many people mistakenly believe that there aren't any negatives related to solar power. But the truth is that.

Solar Energy has established itself as one of the most effective and financially practical sources of electricity production. Electricity generated from solar energy is not only easy on the pocket, but it also has no detrimental impact on the climate. This process of electricity creation helps minimize pollution and make the atmosphere cleaner. Solar energy can benefit everybody, doesn’t matter if you are a domestic customer a business owner, or an industrialist. Whether your motivation to buy a solar system is financial or environmental, there is always something for everyone in it. Similarly, It also has a few cons which we would not call disadvantages but somethings that cannot be considered as benefits as well.
ENERGY INDEPENDENCE Generally, the vast majority rely upon the utility organization to supply them with power. At the point when the grid goes down, the unavailability of electricity for a longer period can be troublesome. On the off chance that you own a solar panel system with battery backup, you can continue producing electricity during emergencies. This peace of mind is important in Pakistan during summers when load shedding and grid failure are common. It's liberating to have unlimited control over where and how you produce energy. Also, with power costs rising, it likewise feels incredible to secure a fixed rate for your power over the course of the following many years.
ELIMINATE YOUR ELECTRICITY BILL With an appropriately estimated system, you can reduce or wipe out your electric bill. Regardless of whether you expand your payback period by applying for SBP's solar financing, you can still have benefit from lessened power costs from the second you flip the switch on your PV framework. This is the most beneficial part of solar for some individuals. With this, one can have free of cost electricity for at least 20 to 25 years.
SUSTAINABILITY A sustainable power source is one that we can use without draining the source of that power. Oil and gas are not sustainable, in light of the fact that we burn through those assets as we use them and one day they will end. Interestingly, solar is sustainable because the origin of energy (daylight) is continually recharged. We can utilize solar energy without worrying about whether we will drain the Earth's most reliable power source for the coming generations.
LOW MAINTENENCE Solar Systemsdon't have a lot of moving parts. Thus, they once in a while break or require support to keep them running ideally. Panels are warranted to last 25 years, yet many have a longer life expectancy. (See "How Long Do Solar Panels Last?") You rarely need to fix or replace panels. It's not unexpected to change your inverter once over the existence of your system, as inverters commonly have a warranty for 10-15 years. However, that is about the only planned maintenance expense you will experience for Grid-tie Solar Systems. In the case of off-grid systems or Hybrid Solar Systems, they have Solar Batteries, which frequently require routine maintenance. In particular, lead-acid batteries (the least expensive option available) should be checked and resupplied with water consistently to keep them working appropriately.
INCREASED PROPERTY VALUE Many vendors experienced an increase in the resale value of the Propertywhen they tried to Sell their Propertywith solar panel systems installed. It demonstrates how advantageous it can be for both the seller and the purchaser. The buyers favor installed panels on a house instead of going through the process all over again.
EXPENSIVE UPFRONT Solar is Costly– at any rate. To install a system that would power a normal home (which utilizes 5kW of power each month), you may have to pay around 6 lac depending upon the solar products you pick. Obviously, you're paying for at any rate 25 years of energy generation in advance. In the long run, you equal the initial investment in the venture and bring in cash, yet that doesn't change the way that not every person has a huge sum in their pocket to get their Solar Dreams Going. The upfront cost is the fundamental limitation to going solar. SBP's Solar Financing options are accessible, and the payback time frame is great when you consider interest.
COST OF BATTERY STORAGE Batteries are the most costly part of a solar system. Not all systems require batteries, but they become compulsory when you go off the grid. They are likewise required if you need to provide backup power to your grid-tied system. Be prepared to pay much more cash when you add batteries to a system. Battery banks cost at any rate two or three thousand dollars, and in the event that you purchase top-of-the-line lithium batteries for a full-scale off-grid system, that is going to cost a lot. Besides, batteries don't keep going as long as other parts of your framework. Lead-corrosive battery warranty ranges from 1 to 7 years, which means you'll replace them 4 or multiple times before the Solar Panelwarranty is up. Lithium batteries offer the right value for their exorbitant cost tag by enduring 10-15 years, however, you're still in for one replacement over the existence of your system.
NOT SUITABLE FOR EVERY PROPERTY Not every Propertyis a solid match for a solar panel system to be installed. A few properties are just too pressed to even consider creating any space to construct a framework. Others are concealed in shade from nearby trees or buildings and wouldn't get the daylight needed to create sufficient energy. While there are innovations like power optimizers and custom racking to alleviate these problems, many factors still limit their extent of application. On the off chance that you don't have any place to install your panels, it will be a genuine test to make Solar Work for Your Home. The latest technology allows using solar panels as sheds, despite that, there needs to be a sufficient space on the roof for the mounting structure. Another reason can be the fact that your roof is too weak to withstand the weight of the panels or for the installation of the panels. It can be rectified though if you are willing to spend money on repairing your roof first.
DOES NOT MAKE SENSE IF YOU LIVE ON RENTED PROPERTY Solar is a beneficial investment, however, the reimbursement math assumes that you'll be living in the same Propertyfor the full span of the 25-year lifetime. It takes quite a long while to break even the underlying expense of the system before you start saving the investment funds from your energy bill into your pocket. Solar has much less rhyme or reason if you don't have your home. Fortunately, in light of the fact that solar enhances Property Value, you are probably going to recover your investment in the system when you go to sell your home. Consider whether you'll stay for some time in your present property before you make the long-term investment into solar.
