| SOLAR - KNOW HOW
? |
The increase energy needs
and rapidly depleting fossil fuel scenario has rightly shifted
the emphasis from conventional energy to non-conversional
energy sources.Solar photovoltaic is one of the such sources
which converts sunlight into DC electricity instantaneously.
Solar Photovoltaic System is the best mean to meet your electricity
requirement in an enviromental friendly.
The Solar Photovoltaic market continues to
boom having sustained growth rates of 30% - 40% per year till
2004-05, but during last financial year the world is likely
to boom by 65% and more.

A silicon Solar cell produces DC electricity
when exposed to sun light due to "Photovoltaic Effect".
A number of such solar cells are interconnected in series
and ancapsulated to make an SPV MODULE. These modules are
when connected in series or parallel and mounted on a support
metallic structure to form an SPV PANELS and whent wo or more
SPV Panels are connected in series or parallel to make suitable
output as required to a designed power plant is called SPV
ARRAY.
The SPV systems are extremely simple to operate
and maintain. They have a long operating life with the backing
of highly reliable and trouble free performance. These systems
are completely noiseless and are unlikely to produce any envoirmental
pollution. or ecolofical imbalance. These energy sources are
modular in nature and can be upgraded as and when required.
All these advantages make Solar Photovoltaic highly suitable
for various applications in developing countries as India. |

In remote locations, where
grid electricity is not available and it is very much uneconomical
and unreliable to think about the other centrally generated
electricity and its distribution except SPV Systems. SPV Electricity
may turn out to be an ideal solution in these areas. This
is due to the fact that the fuel, for the electricity production,
i.e. the sunlight, is available at the place of use.
No doubt the future of the Solar Photovoltaic
business is bright , even there is tough competition in the
existing market where production cost of the SPV system is
very high and the paying capacity of our customer in domestic
market is low. Till now the Indian market was mostly operated
by the Govt. Agencies under subsidy scheme and there was no
reliable reliable program of awareness in the market.
As the demand of SPV System increased in
the world market since last two years which causes the shortage
of Si, in international market, which is the basic raw material
and hence hike in the price on the SPV Systems.
As the demand relates the production, so
in the passion the world producer in the market have plznned
to increase their capacity & more and more producers came
in the market.But fulfilling the gap among the production-demand-cost
will take about two year more time and later our domestic
market will boom very high and will increase the business
opportunity.
