If you’re a homeowner asking “Can I power my entire home with solar energy?”—the short answer is yes. With the right solar setup, including a battery backup and efficient design, you can run your home 100% on solar power, even during power cuts or cloudy days.
MYSUN—Among India’s leading solar solutions provider - breaks down everything you need to know to go fully solar, step by step.
Step 1: Understand Your Home’s Power Needs
To go fully solar, you need to calculate your average daily electricity consumption. MYSUN helps you analyze:
- Your electricity bills (last 6–12 months)
- Total energy usage in kilowatt-hours (kWh)
- Peak load requirements (what runs at the same time: ACs, geysers, fridge, etc.)
Example:
If your monthly consumption is around 300 units (kWh), you’ll need a 3–4 kW solar system to go 100% solar.
Step 2: Choose the Right Solar System Type
To run your home completely on solar, you need more than just panels. MYSUN recommends one of the following based on your location and backup needs:
1. On-Grid Solar System
- Best for homes with reliable grid power
- Reduces bills significantly
- Does not work during power cuts unless a battery is added
2. Hybrid Solar System (Recommended for Full Solar Use)
- Combines solar + battery + grid
- Powers your home even during outages
- Stores excess power during the day for use at night
3. Off-Grid Solar System
- Ideal for remote locations with no grid access
- Completely independent, powered by solar + batteries
- Requires higher investment in battery capacity
Step 3: Site Assessment & System Design (MYSUN Does This for You)
MYSUN engineers conduct a site visit to:
- Measure rooftop area
- Check sunlight availability and shading
- Evaluate load requirements
- Design a customized solar solution that fits your energy needs and budget
Step 4:Installation with MYSUN
Once you approve the system design, MYSUN takes care of everything:
- Procurement of high-efficiency solar panels and components
- Installation of panels, inverters, batteries (if needed), and wiring
- Safety compliance, net metering (if on-grid/hybrid), and testing
Step 5:Monitor and Maintain Your System
After setup, you can monitor your system using a mobile app:
- Track how much energy your system produces
- View usage patterns
- Know how much you’re saving monthly
MYSUN offers AMC (Annual Maintenance Cleaning) for periodic inspections and performance optimization.
Do I Need Batteries to Run Fully on Solar?
Yes—if you want complete independence from the grid and uninterrupted power, you’ll need a battery setup.
- Battery capacity depends on how much night-time or backup usage you need
- Lithium-ion batteries are preferred for longer life and faster charging
- MYSUN offers hybrid systems with smart battery solutions tailored to your needs
What Does It Cost to Go 100% Solar?
The cost depends on system size and battery capacity. But with government subsidies and MYSUN’s EMI options, going solar is now more affordable than ever.
Subsidy Example (PM Surya Ghar Yojana):
- Up to ₹1,08,000 subsidy available for residential rooftop solar
- Covers both central (₹78,000) and Uttar Pradesh state (₹30,000) grants
Key Benefits of Running Your Home Entirely on Solar
- Zero electricity bills (or near-zero if hybrid)
- Independence from rising grid tariffs
- Backup power during outages
- Environmentally friendly—reduce your carbon footprint
- Higher home resale value with rooftop solar installed
Final Thoughts: Is It Practical to Run Your Home Fully on Solar?
Yes, absolutely. With smart design, battery support, and service, solar is no longer just an add-on—it can be your home’s primary and reliable power source.
