why use of solar energy has not worked for India so far?

We Answered:

solar panels or cells requires silver lining which needs more capital (money) and the output is very less for each solar plate.It also requires lot of maintenance because of direct exposure to environmental conditions.Any how, the solar generators or solar lamps are now coming into market abundantly;But as you said to resolve the power crisis,I think it would take more time....

Solar panels for power generation. How is it done?

We Answered:

With a large enough investment. A number of utilities have programs that help subsidize installations of "co-producer" solar panel arrays. Your out of pocket will still run on the order of 30,000,00 dollars US, give or take a bit. You are still grid tied though, but at times when you are not using the power, or the excess power if you are charging batteries, you are producing energy for the power company.

One of the things that has been promoted in some magazines and in some online forums- and is illegal in the manner most do it, has been for people to go out and buy a panel, a charge controller and an inverter and just plug that into their wall outlet- a very unsafe practice, but people do it.

The power company, when they install a system that complies with their standards, you are not getting paid an enhanced rate, you are still selling the power back to them at a lower rate than what they would charge you to use that same amount of energy.

What is usually most cost effective for people is to simply cut their usage. You can do that by looking at the "half program" on the site http://www.builditsolar.com
