Case Study

Krishan Kumar Residential Solar Project | 2 kW

A 5kW residential solar solution installed for Rekha Pathak in Ghaziabad to power a sustainable home.

Krishan Kumar Residential Solar Project | 2 kW

Krishan Kumar lives in Ballabhgarh with his family. Every month, he faced high electricity bills, which made it difficult to manage household expenses. He started looking for a simple and long-term solution that could help him save money and also provide steady electricity at home.

During this time, he learned about solar energy and how it generates electricity from sunlight. As a result, he noticed his rooftop was empty and receiving direct sunlight for most of the day. Therefore, instead of leaving it unused, he decided to convert it into a useful energy source.

Plantation

Solar panels provide clean energy, lower power bills, and support a clean and greener environment.

Objectives

The residential solar system makes electricity use cheaper, more efficient, and better managed at home for daily needs.

01.

02.

To reduce monthly energy bills and get stable electricity.

03.

Depend less on costly electricity from the grid.

04.

To make the home more eco-friendly and safe for the future.

Challenges

The installation needed careful planning to ensure the safety and good performance of the system.

Roof Strength Check & Support Work

The rooftop was carefully checked and strengthened to safely hold solar panels without causing any damage or risk.

Leak Protection & Waterproofing Care

Extra care was taken during installation to prevent water leakage and protect the roof from possible damage or seepage.

Safety Grounding & Electrical Protection

Proper earthing and safety rules protect the system, wiring, and home from electrical faults or damage.

Impact

The solar system provided good savings on electricity bills, better use of power at home, and clean energy benefits for daily use.
