Considering the depleting sources of non-renewable energy and huge, ever-increasing energy demands, solar energy is one of the most promising segments in renewable energy to fulfil the demands of economic progress of the country. While migrating from a state of ‘developing nation’ to a ‘developed nation’ stage, a country witnesses huge investment and significant changes in its infrastructure. Industries of a nation can’t progress without the supporting growth in infrastructure elements. Indian infrastructure is also experiencing the same change. The Government of India has announced $1 trillion investment to boost to industrial houses to take the country in the league of developed nations.
Energy is most vital sector of the infrastructure as it is required to run the industries, illuminate buildings, run appliances and what not. We cannot imagine life without energy. Energy drives the production to meet the consumption demand of country which in turn drives GDP growth. Sources suggest that India is still almost 15 times behind an industrially advanced nation in terms of the average per capita electricity production (10,000 units person in a developed country vis-a-vis 800 units per person in India).
The conventional sources of energy have been thermal (coal), oil and gas. In renewable sources, solar, wind and hydro are the major categories. Today thermal is the biggest source of energy for producing power for the country. In near future, solar will have the equal or more amount of share in spite of all the challenges being faced by the sector in the present times. This is primarily due to the rapidly diminishing sources of coal/oil/gas as we have limited stores of these fuels, whereas sun is an eternal, powerful and sustainable source of energy.  Of course, water and wind are also important natural resources of energy available, but they don’t have the same potential as of solar energy owing to various reasons such as the total cost of harnessing the power, location-based specifications, cumbersome procedure of approvals etc.
With advent of new technology and continuous research and development in the automation sector, solar energy cost is bound to come down and become more accessible and meaningful for the progress of the country.
