The Big Question: Wind or Solar?

The answer depends on your location, energy needs, and budget. Let's break it down.

Solar Panels

Pros: Consistent output, low maintenance, scalable, silent operation, mature technology.

Cons: Only daytime generation, weather dependent, needs significant space, requires regular cleaning.

Wind Turbines

Pros: 24/7 potential, works in any weather, small footprint, complements solar.

Cons: Location dependent, initial cost can be higher, moving parts need maintenance.

Cost Comparison

Solar 3kW: ₹1,50,000-2,00,000 | Wind 3kW: ₹2,00,000-3,00,000

Recommendation: Hybrid Systems

The best solution for most people is a hybrid system combining both solar and wind for maximum energy generation.
