  India since the age of Puranas, had realised the importance of the sun. Life on the earth is sustained due to presence of almighty sun. He is the centre of extreme power, giving light and life to other planets. Due to this power he is considered as the king of our solar system. In sanskrit, sun is called surya. He is God of Hindus, creator of universe and  source of life. He has been traveling in seven horses chariot, to come out in the east, the next morning. He doesn't rest. If he stops, there won't be life on earth. Who are aware of his great power, in Hinduism, every morning, there is culture of praying to sun God, holding hands, facing to the east, called Surya Namaskara. He is celebrated during the harvest festival of Pongal in southern India and by Tamils in general. There are temples built in India for Sun God, one is in Orissa, the Konark temple. This is to introduce a little about Sun.

       Using that solar energy India has installed a capacity of 23 GW as of 30 June 2018. India's initiative of 100 GW of solar energy by 2022 is an ambitious target.
    Karnataka is the top solar state in India exceeding 5,000 MW installed capacity by the end of financial year 2017-18. The installed capacity of Pavagada Solar Park is 600 MW and its ultimate 2,000 MW installed capacity is expected by the end of year 2020

Tamil Nadu has the 5th highest installed solar-power capacity in India on May 2018. The total installed capacity in Tamil Nadu is 1,8 GW. On 1 July 2017, Solar power tariff in Tamil Nadu has hit an all-time low of Rs 3.47 per unit when bidding for 1500 MW capacity was held.

Role of solar energy in agriculture

Role of solar energy in agriculture : 1) Solar Powered Pumps:               A switch from conventional diesel  and electric-powered irrigation pumps to solar-powered, one can help the country achieve 38 per cent of its envisaged 175 GW renewable energy target by 2022.             Farmer to pay only 10% cost of solar pumps under KUSUM Budget scheme             The Indian farmer will effectively bear only 10 per cent of cost for solarising his agricultural pump under a scheme unveiled in the Budget 2018-19.               The government will spend Rs 48,000 crore over 10 years as central financial assistance (CFA) on the KUSUM scheme which aims to encourage the use of barren land for setting up solar power plants.                Government is  proposing to solarise every agricultural pump and they will be connecting all the grid connected pumps with solar power 2) Solar Fencing in Agriculture :                                                      It plays

Net Metering

Image
   Net Metering    is   a   new   concept   where   an instrument  which  has  a  special  metering  and billing  agreement  between  utilities  and  their customers,  facilitates  the  connection  of  small,renewable energy-generating systems to the power grid. This new  programme  is  being  developed  to  encourage  small-scale  renewable  energy  systems  to  ensure  that  customers always  have  a  reliable  source  of  energy  even  when  their renewable  generators  are  not  producing  energy,  and  to provide substantial benefits to the electric power-generating system as well as the environment. When  a  net  metering  client’s  renewable  generator  is producing more power than is being consumed, the electric meter runs backward generating credits. Whenever the net metering customer uses more power than is being produced, the meter runs forward normally. Net metering customers are charged only for the net power that they consume from the electricity service provider t

Solar Rotation Hanger

Image
In cities, usually we will be little worried about drying clothes in our balcony. During winter and rainy, we try a lot to dry our clothes, turning them, changing to sunlight, fading out colour, if receives too much sunlight. Here we got a hanger rack that can be automatically rotated by solar power generation. Compared with traditional hangers, this hanger can greatly reduce the drying time of the clothing. It will sterilize the whole surface, eliminate bacteria, protect family health. An Innovation different way from traditional clothes drying method. It is a hanger rack that can be automatically rotated by solar power generation. Compared with traditional hangers, this hanger can greatly reduce the drying time of the clothing. It will sterilize the whole surface, eliminate bacteria, protect family health.   The hanger rack can rotate 360 ° to sunlight the laundry in all directions. Derived by rigorous calculation, It can reach 6 rotations per minute moderate rotation speed. Th
