NEW DELHI: How would you like not paying your electricity bill at all? That’s possible. No, it’s not about an election-time promise by a political party. It’s about the new technology which is now commercially available — the solar power. It’s environment friendly as well as cost effective. It can cut your electricity bill by at least 90 per cent. All you need is access to rooftop.
We explain how a family of four living in Delhi in a 2 BHK, 900 square feet home with access to a rooftop can benefit by switching to a rooftop solar-power system.
This family uses a refrigerator, a washing machine, a hot-water geyser, a television set, two air-conditioners, five-six tube lights and a few electrical appliances in the kitchen. In all, it has 20-25 appliances ranging from a mobile phone charger to an AC.
