Solar Energy education, training for professional, entrepreneur, working person in India

Solar power in India now accounts for over 2GW of the country’s electricity generation capacity, according to government figures. Tobias Engelmeier, managing director at Bridge to India said in a recent blog that “Solar power is the only currently commercially available source of power that could both provide enough power from within the country to meet India’s rising demand and in addition offer distributed solutions that are less dependent on grid extension.” The Ministry Of New and Renewable Energy is promoting the grid connected solar rooftop systems in the country under Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission. Central Financial Assistance upto 30 percent of the benchmark cost of the project is provided for setting up of the solar rooftop systems which generate the power and are connected to the grid. Government has launched Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) on January 11, 2010. The Mission targets deployment of 20,000 MW of grid connected solar ...

Going by the 2011 Census, India has around 330 million houses, with 140 million houses having proper roofs which can accommodate on an average 1-3kWp of solar PV system. Among the 140 million houses, around 130 million are having two rooms. Besides, there are other commercial buildings, shopping complexes and offices that can accommodate larger solar PV capacities. Taking into account the houses with two rooms, approximately 25000 MW of solar capacity can be installed by putting solar panels on 20 per cent of the roofs. With quality sunshine around the year, and huge availability of rooftop space in the country, India can kick out the power woes by installing solar panels on them. As of now, there is clear lack of awareness and the will to harness the potential that could help the country address the issue of energy security to a greater extent. A market study on the residential solar segment in India and estimates that this market will grow up to 600 MW by 2018. This equates t...

“The Power Is In Your Hands”:  "The true wealth of a Nation consists not in the stored-up gold in its coffers and banks, not in the factories, but in the intellectual and physical strength of its men, women and children." - Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman IST on Thursday, 7th November, 2013 celebrated CV Raman's 125th birthday by dedicating this free E-course - "The Power Is In Your Hands" for children. For kids of all ages, there is always something new to learn about science and technology. IST supports Solar Energy education through educational online content. Because of a growing interest in renewable energy and the increasingly competitive prices of alternative energy sources, solar power has received a lot of attention over the past several years. However, solar power generation itself is not new; it has been used for more than half a century, mostly on a small scale or for specialized purposes, such as generating electricity for spacecraft and ...

"Empowering people for sustainable energy" The economic development of modern societies is crucially dependent on energy. Energy is vital for sustainable development. The methods of production, supply and consumption of energy are key issues in sustainable development because they strongly affect the local and global environment. India is the world’s seventh-largest energy producer and the fifth-largest energy consumer, accounting for more than 4% of total global annual energy consumption. India needs to shift to non-polluting renewable sources of energy to meet future demand for electricity for economic as well as environmental development. Renewable energy will provide long-term economic growth for India. Renewable energy has the potential to re-energize India’s economy by creating millions of new jobs, allowing the country to achieve energy independence, reduce its trade deficits and propel it forward as a “Green Nation.” To build stable and sustainable com...

The New Town Kolkata Development Authority (NKDA) took a stride forward to turn Rajarhat-New Town into a solar city. It has made it mandatory for all commercial and residential highrises to install solar rooftop systems to meet at least 2% of the buildings' electrical load requirement. According to the plan, all multi-storied buildings in Rajarhat-New Town have to meet around 1.5% to 2% of their electrical load requirement through solar power. The buildings also need to be energy intelligent which will minimize the use of conventional electricity. Regulators, on the other hand, will fix the feed in tariff rate for using solar power. Now, generate solar energy on rooftops to power homes Imagine power consumers turning into power generators. West Bengal Green Energy Development Corporation (WBGEDC) has made it possible with a technology that will help you generate your own personal power and also give the surplus to the grid. WBGEDC has developed solar photovoltaic sys...
