IN SPITE OF ALL THESE ENVIRONMENTAL
CONCERNS,
SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC IS ONE OF THE
CLEANEST FORM OF ENERGY
ENVIRONMENT ASPECT
PV UNIT : PRICE PER PEAK WATT (WP)
PEAK WATT IS THE AMOUNT OF POWER OUTPUT A PV MODULE
PRODUCES AT STANDARD TEST CONDITIONS (STC) OF A MODULE
OPERATING TEMPERATURE OF 25°C IN FULL NOONTIME SUNSHINE
(IRRADIANCE) OF 1,000 WATTS PER SQUARE METER
A TYPICAL 1KWP SYSTEM PRODUCES APPROXIMATELY
1600-2000 KWH ENERGY IN INDIA AND AUSTRALIA
A TYPICAL 2000 WATT PEAK (2KWP) SOLAR ENERGY SYSTEM COSTING RS
440000 (INCLUDING INSTALLATION) WILL CORRESPOND TO A PRICE OF
RS 220/WP
There has been almost six fold decline in price per peak watt of PV module
from 1980 to year 2000
Solar PV Costs 1980-2000
Solar electricity prices are today, around 30 cents/kWh, but still 2-5 times
average Residential electricity tariffs
RENEWABLE ENERGY COST TRENDS
WATER PUMPING: PV powered pumping systems are excellent ,simple ,reliable –
life 20 yrs
COMMERCIAL LIGHTING: PV powered lighting systems are reliable and low cost
alternative. Security, billboard sign, area, and outdoor lighting are all viable
applications for PV
CONSUMER ELECTRONICS: Solar powered watches, calculators, and cameras are
all everyday applications for PV technologies.
TELECOMMUNICATIONS
RESIDENTIAL POWER: A residence located more than a mile from the electric
grid can install a PV system more inexpensively than extending the electric grid
(Over 500,000 homes worldwide use PV power as their only source of electricity)
The Delhi Government has decided to make use of solar power
compulsory for lighting up hoardings and for street lighting
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)
Arid regions receive plentiful solar radiation, regions like Rajasthan,
Gujarat and Haryana receive sunlight in plenty.
Thus the Potential availability - 20 MW/km2 (source IREDA)
IREDA is planning to electrify 18,000 villages by year 2012 mainly
through solar PV systems
Targets have been set for the large scale utilization of PV technology by
different sectors within the next five years
Solar Electric Energy demand has grown consistently by 20-25% per
annum over the past 20 years (from 26 MW back in 1980 to 127MW in
1997)
At present solar photovoltaic is not the prime contributor to the
electrical capacities but the pace at which advancement of PV
technology and with the rising demand of cleaner source of energy it is
expected by 2030 solar PV will have a leading role in electricity
generation
Research is underway for new fabrication techniques, like those used for
microchips. Alternative materials like cadmium sulfide and gallium
arsenide ,thin-film cells are in development
The global solar infrastructure would have an investment value
of US$75 billion a year. By 2040 global solar output could be
more than 9000 Terawatt hours, or 26% of the expected global
demand
Report European Photovoltaic Industry Association
(EPIA) and Greenpeace
BY 2020 global solar output could be 276 Terawatt hours, which
would equal 30% of Africa's energy needs or 1% of global demand.
This would replace the output of 75 new coal fired power stations.
.
MAJOR POWER POLICY REFORMS AND TAX INCENTIVES WILL PLAY
A MAJOR ROLE IF ALL THE ABOVE SAID IS TO BE EFFECTIVELY
REALIZED.
THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT FOR CONTINUED PV TECHNOLOGY
DISSEMINATION
THE KEY TO SUCCESSFUL SOLAR ENERGY INSTALLATION IS TO
USE QUALITY COMPONENTS THAT HAVE LONG LIFETIMES AND
REQUIRE MINIMAL MAINTENANCE.
PV TECHNOLOGY FILLS A SIGNIFICANT NEED IN SUPPLYING
ELECTRICITY, CREATING LOCAL JOBS AND PROMOTING
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN RURAL AREAS, AVOIDING THE
EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH
TRADITIONAL ELECTRICAL GENERATION TECHNOLOGIES.
“ BY THE YEAR 2030, INDIA SHOULD ACHIEVE
ENERGY INDEPENDENCE THROUGH SOLAR
POWER AND OTHER FORMS OF RENEWABLE
ENERGY ”
