Installing Home Solar Power to Instantly Cut 80% Off Your Electricity Bill: Truth or Hype?
As electricity prices continue to rise, the term "Home Solar Power" has become a solution that many households are interested in. Some places advertise that it can reduce monthly electricity bills by up to 80%—which sounds incredibly appealing, but is it really true? This article will help you understand the core concept, analyze the costs and benefits, and reveal the reality of installing a home solar power system.


The electricity bill shows a significant reduction in consumption.
What Is Home Solar Power and How Does It Work?
Home solar power refers to a system that uses solar panels installed on rooftops to absorb sunlight and convert it into electricity for daily use. The system can either operate independently or be connected to the national grid.
Depending on the installed capacity and the household’s electricity usage, the system can help save from 50% to 80% of the electricity bill.

Why Many Households Save Up to 80% on Their Electricity Bills
A System Tailored to Your Needs
If a household consumes around 800–1,000 kWh per month, a properly designed solar system of 5–7kWp can generate an equivalent amount of electricity, potentially reducing the bill by nearly 80%. However, the actual savings depend on:
Installation location (whether the roof receives ample sunlight)
Quality of solar panels and inverters
Actual electricity consumption

Bidirectional Grid Connection – Selling Excess Electricity
Some households use a bidirectional grid-tied system, which allows them to sell surplus electricity back to EVN (Vietnam Electricity), further increasing savings or even generating monthly income. However, not all areas support this buy-back policy.

The Truth Behind the "80%" Figure – It Doesn’t Apply to Everyone
While some cases do achieve 80% savings, this number is not guaranteed for every household. Several factors like roof orientation, rainy seasons, and energy usage habits significantly affect system efficiency.
To maximize effectiveness, you need to:
Get proper consultation and site inspection before installation
Choose a reputable supplier
Regularly monitor the system to ensure stable performance

Should You Install a Home Solar Power System?
If you live in an area with abundant sunlight year-round and your monthly electricity bill exceeds 1 million VND, then investing in a home solar power system is well worth it. Although the initial cost can range from 50 to 100 million VND, the payback period is usually around 4–6 years, and the system can last over 20 years.
Additionally, using clean energy helps protect the environment and increases the value of your home.

Frequently Asked Questions About Home Solar Power
1. How long does it take to recover the investment after installing home solar power?
Typically between 4 to 6 years, depending on electricity consumption and system capacity.
2. Do I need a permit to install solar panels at home?
For systems under 10kWp for households, a permit is usually not required, but you should notify the local power authority.
3. Will the system work during rainy or cloudy seasons?
Yes, but at reduced efficiency. The system can still generate electricity from diffused sunlight.
4. What is the lifespan of solar panels?
On average 25–30 years, with performance warranties ensuring 80% efficiency after 25 years.
5. Can I use battery storage instead of connecting to the grid?
Yes, off-grid systems with battery storage are suitable for areas without grid access or for those wanting complete energy independence.
