Solar And Wind Energy To Boost Power Generation

Solar and wind energy are two of the most readily
available renewable sources of energy to help us
fight our existing energy challenges and climate
change.

Solar Power Generation in India
Indias solar power insolation is about 5,000 T
KWh per year. Indias long term solar potential
looks extremely bright owing to high solar
insolation and a big consumer base, a majority of
which still lives off-grid. More than 8 of
Indias total land area is ideal for solar power
projects, as these tracts of land are barren and
unsuitable for agriculture. This is a huge
potential given the fact that 1.33 million MW
capacity solar plants can be installed on only 1
of Indias total land area.

Wind Power Generation in India
India comes fifth in the world in wind power
capacity which has been a steadily rising since
2006. Wind power accounts nearly 8.5 of our
total installed power generation capacity and it
stands at 23,444 MW as on March 31, 2015. The
Ministry of New and Renewable Energy of India has
announced a revision in the estimation of
potential wind power source to 102,788 MW.
