In addition, we also know the energy crisis in the country, especially after the Russia-Ukraine war. The gas and electricity prices are increasing drastically and we as an industrialist have been facing tremendous higher costs to run the factories. With the up-gradation of solar technology, the reasonable price of PV modules and other materials is now more affordable and viable as alternative energy sources.
Therefore, we all need to think about renewable energy as the best alternative solution to minimize energy costs. Being an existing rooftop solar power user as we are experienced in this.
