Disclaimer

The information and tools provided on Kindastuff Solar Analytics (kindastuff.com) are intended for general informational and professional reference purposes only.

While we make every effort to ensure accuracy, Kindastuff Solar Analytics makes no representations or warranties of any kind — express or implied — about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of the information, tools, or related content on this website for any purpose.

This disclaimer applies to all pages, tools, blog articles, and content published on kindastuff.com, including all solar performance calculators, blog posts, and related resources.

Kindastuff's solar calculators are built on industry-recognized formulas and methodologies, including those referenced in IEC 61724-1 for PV system performance monitoring. See the published methodology for the formulas behind each calculator.

Our tools are designed to help solar professionals perform quick, reliable estimates for routine performance analysis — such as calculating CUF, Performance Ratio (PR), soiling losses, generation losses, and plant availability. They are built and maintained by an engineer with hands-on solar plant experience.

What the calculators are designed for:

Kindastuff Solar Analytics is designed for solar industry professionals — O&M engineers, asset managers, EPC contractors, and solar consultants with existing domain knowledge.

Our tools assume the user understands the underlying concepts (CUF, PR, POA irradiance, NMGG, etc.) and can judge whether the inputs and outputs make sense in the context of their specific plant and operating conditions.

If you are unfamiliar with solar performance metrics, we recommend using our blog articles and tool explanations as educational context, and consulting a qualified solar engineer before making decisions based on calculator outputs.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Kindastuff Solar Analytics and its owner(s) shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from:

• Use of or inability to use any tool or calculator on this website
• Reliance on any output, result, or estimate produced by our tools
• Errors or omissions in calculator results due to incorrect input data
• Decisions made based on blog articles or content published on this site
• Financial, operational, or contractual losses of any kind
• Temporary unavailability of the website or its tools
• Any third-party content linked from this website

Blog articles published on kindastuff.com are written by an experienced solar engineer and are intended for educational and informational purposes only.

We strive for technical accuracy in all articles and cite primary sources — including IEC standards, MNRE guidelines, CERC regulations, and peer-reviewed literature — wherever applicable. However, blog content should not be treated as certified engineering documentation or legal/regulatory guidance.

Regarding Standards and Regulatory References

Where articles reference specific standards (e.g., IEC 61724-1), regulations (e.g., CERC RE Tariff Regulations), or guidelines (e.g., MNRE PM-KUSUM), we make every effort to use the most current published versions available at the time of writing. Standards and regulations evolve — always refer to the original published documents for the definitive version.

Some tools and articles on Kindastuff reference Indian solar regulatory frameworks including CERC RE Tariff Regulations, MNRE guidelines, and state DISCOM requirements.

Regulatory benchmarks cited on this site — such as minimum CUF norms, NMGG calculation methodologies, and availability standards — are based on publicly available documents at the time of publication. These figures are provided as reference points for professional understanding and are not official regulatory determinations.

• Always verify regulatory thresholds against the latest gazetted notifications from CERC, MNRE, or your relevant state electricity regulatory commission (SERC)
• State-level regulations may differ from central regulations — check your specific PPA and applicable state orders
• NMGG targets should be agreed upon with your offtaker and verified against your specific PPA terms
