Open Access Solar
Open access solar in India allows large power consumers to purchase electricity directly from Independent Power Producers (IPPs) to save the electricity cost without relying solely on local distribution companies (DISCOMs). Open access solar power in large-scale commercial and industrial (C&I) consumers helps to reduce their carbon footprint. This is particularly beneficial for businesses looking to power their operations with clean energy without the space constraints of installing rooftop solar solutions.

How Does Open Access Solar Work?
A commercial solar rooftop system works by converting sunlight into electricity to power your business efficiently.
Solar panels are installed on your roof to capture sunlight. These panels consist of photovoltaic cells that absorb the sun’s energy.
As the solar panels absorb sunlight, they create a chemical reaction within the cells, converting solar energy into direct current (DC) electricity.
An inverter connected to the panels converts the DC electricity into alternating current (AC), which is the type of electricity used to power your business appliances.
A bi-directional net meter measures both the energy consumed and any excess energy generated, which can be sent back to the grid, potentially earning your business credits.
