Govardhanji I am a farmer by profession , right now, having Marketing qualifications worked Abroad for Two decades . Want to start Solar Farm looking for funding,
I appreciate the effort and the strides that we are making in utilizing renewable (especially) solar energy for powering India. In addition to what is discussed in the video, I would also like to suggest one more aspect of solar energy, Solar Thermal-based applications, like solar heating and cooling, thereby reducing the usage of fuel powered boilers and conventional refrigerant cooling systems, thus curbing negative impact on our environment. Active research is being carried out in various laboratories across the world, on utilizing the thermal aspects of solar energy in conjunction with Photovoltaics to boost the efficiency, and increase their utilization in the coming future.
if you use third generation solar tech (flexible paper or paint) you can have unlimited solar on the individual level. a great example is the Solar catalyst KBNNO BY YANG BAI OF FINLAND. it lets you make solar powered batteries
Excellent ! I too am fascinated by solar energy. Will install solar at my home once I’m in India. In 2017 December I gave similar talks in 3 engineering colleges in Pune to students and teachers about solar energy and electric vehicles. I too charge my mobile using a small solar panel everyday.
I'm greatly thrilled that this video is obsolete because solar has blew away the expectations given in this video. India, and the world, have moved to solar. Push it onward!
I have a few questions... Solar is land-intensive technology, land availability is the biggest challenge in India What about land availability issue? Secondly Solar is intermittent we will need a battery and the battery is still very expensive. Then what about grid parity? What about the capability of the grid to accommodate intermittent technologies? As we know with the increase of the intermittent technologies grid inertia decreases making the grid very unstable?
How about the purchase of batteries for storage of energy. Exhorbitant cost. Therefore for consumer per KW price 3 times higher than thevutility suppliers
Solar technology needs to radically improved. Presently its viability depends on govt. Supported subsidies. We Indians are great in talking only. No Indian company is investing in solar technology research. Every solar related items are cheap imported from china. Start ups companies are 80% relatieves of bureaucrats, eyeing only government subsidies. All Installed projects have become none functional after 2 years. People who can afford to install for personal domestic purposes are not encouraged at all . This area is big market.
I read that about nearly 50 million families/homes are off grid. If it is this easy to get a solar panel and power your home for stuff, they why the delay? Its apparently not economically possible in the near future to get them on grid, while working to get the current on grid families hooked to sustainable power sources, so I've read.
if what this guy is saying is right, why is the government of india taking away whatever little support it was offering in terms of accelerated depreciation/subsidies???? also if the government is targetting 100GW, what is it doing for that?
Pooja Goyal [Edulabz Intl, New Delhi] check the current facts .....yes i has taken away the incentivea because the competition in the industry have increased due to which the prices have reduced drastically.
Sanketh Saha bro Sikkim just a example rajasthan is number one state in production of Solar energy in India, rajsthan Playing major role not only in Solar bt also other renewals energy sources such as Wind
How to make this Solar power delivered at the doorstep of every house(forget the Superpower thing, it is infantile stuff)? Solar power is there in sky we to need 'engineer' it to bring it to our doorstep. Solar power is available in the day only & is maximum at noon to wane away to zero at dawn& dusk. In North India (north of the Tropic of Cancer or Vindhyas) it is less than South India. It is more in summer & less in winter. So. we need a sizable, dependable, modern (in Technology), maintainable battery back-up. There needs to be space or room for it in every house. The speaker quoted figures like 4.5 to 6.5 kW-hr./square metre which is the energy figure. Ir should be 4.5 to 6.5 kW-hr./square metre 'per hour' as the energy is raining down all the time every second. He ought to gave used Watts/square metre (about 1376) if he 'was' an electrical engineer as he claims. India's area is 3 million square km or 3 trillion square metres which has peak (noon time) potential of 1146 GW-hr all over the country (if we cover every inch of India's territory). We can practically tap a small part of it. Simply put, the point is this. India has no technology, a manufacturing facility nor factory to produces Solar panels. India has no solar panel technology. India missed 'semiconductor' bus in 1960s, when East & South east countries (who were behind India in these matters then) made progress to supply even to the USA. India has totally ignored a very vital matter . None asked a question & everyone is happy. Now India imports them almost all, from PR China.The speaker couldn't care less about this aspect, that he didn't even mention. Where do the Solar panels come from?? But the question should rankle the minds of any patriotic Indian. But Indians are insensitive, least responsible (it is the responsibility of someone else to manufacture & ship it to us; we will pay?). With all this, they want to 'make in India'. What the F***?
@RU-vid User ! First, for that we need to produce Silicon metal. We missed that (Technology) bus in 1970s. Now that has progressed far far ahead. We can't get that (Technology). To develop it on our own we need to take the same time (& money, lot of it). What PRC does is only produce with Taiwan Technology. Let one country (Taiwan) give us fabrication process (Technology), so that we can produce in a factory set up here. They will market it in their name.We buy from them. Never mind; we are interested (like PRC) in the raw material.
All we need to learn/steal technology of photovoltic cells from Chinese ...solar panels are still expensive ...I will but electric bike car and use electricity made by solar panels only if solar panel gets cheap ..
Didn't watch it but for it to happen, they have to at least come close or match China's solar power efforts. Investments should pour like how China throws money to huge projects.
as Solar power technology improving this will reduce cost of all equipment required including battery year by year also lots of indian companies including isro working on battery technology.
Anniyan Anniyan it is not free but can Yu imagine what if every house has cheap solar panels that can easily charge yur cars bike and can use in home ...and we make those batteries and panels cheaply in India ...we don't need to import crude oil ...it will make dollar and rupee nearly equivalent....so that we would be able to increase pace of building infrastructure factories everything ..
Dude, solve the basic problems ( eg: poverty, sanitary...) in your country first before going to the next frontier. If a country couldnt even provide its citizen a toilet in every house, dont bother making the next leap into other advancement.
Ours is organic & sustainable growth, everything happens with time. Developments and solving problem should happen hand in hand, not like one first and another later.
Development is interlinked. Electricity is required for pumping water in urban as well as rural areas. Water is a necessity for sanitation and without it toilets will be abandoned, sanitation in turn is one of the sustainability goals for reducing/eradicating poverty. Electricity also helps further education, jobs, simplifying household chores for women... The list goes on!
EXCELLENT PRESENTATION .... Congratulations Kunai for your career and accomplishments. Keep up with you good work, and pls.. share more insights so more people gets the news about SOLAR POWER as a solution not only to bring cheap energy, but also jobs.
Next is finding an inexpensive way of making households power banks, that are non toxic and last abusive use. Revamp the old nickel iron, something that doesn't need importing unlike the mobile phone battery. Also another good use of solar energy is thermal power, for cleaning or desalination of water over many cycles, and the turbines that can be run off the stream segments of the process.and be continued in to the night with either heat storage or coal. Set up near greenhouses or floating on rivers - coastal areas, since much of what slows projects down is finding land.
