INTRODUCTION
As we know that the energy demand is rapidly increasing day by day. Various alternative fuels are using now a days to fulfill the requirements of this energy demand. Solar energy is one of them which absolutely free of charge, but to utilize this source of energy we need some equipment's which obviously have a fixed cost. The sun is the primary energy source for almost all energy flows on the planet such as heating, cooking and cooling, as well as for power generation. Solar energy can be utilized directly or indirectly to such activities. We have consider here the main problem of public i.e., power supply. For which we need photovoltaic cells which are directly convert the solar light in to the electricity.
PV systems
The key parts of a solar energy generation
system are:
• Photovoltaic modules to collect sunlight
• An inverter to transform direct current (DC) to
alternate current (AC)
• A set of batteries for stand-alone PV systems
• Support structures to orient the PV modules
toward the Sun.
The system components,
India Solar Photovoltaic Market
As prices dropped, PV began to be used for stand-alone home power. If you didn’t have an existing electrical line close to your property, it was cheaper to have a PV system (including batteries and a backup generator) than to connect to the grid. As technology advanced, grid-connected PV with net metering became possible.
Present PV Scenario in India
In terms of overall installed PV capacity, India comes fourth after Japan, Germany and U.S.
(With Installed capacity of 110 MW)
In the area of Photovoltaics India today is the second largest manufacturer in the world of PV panels based on crystalline solar cells.
(Industrial production in this area has reached a level of 11 MW per year which is about 10% of the world’s total PV production)
A major drive has also been initiated by the Government to export Indian PV products, systems, technologies and services
(Solar Photovoltaic plant and equipment has been exported to countries in the Middle East and Africa)
Subsidy by Indian Government
The Indian government is further planning to offer a subsidy of 55% on installation of solar power in residential and commercial settings. It is also planning to power more than 10,000 villages with solar energy by the year 2012.
The subsidy program is a part of the Indian government's ambitious initiative to install 20,000 MW solar energy power systems by 2022
