The government has promised that every village would be connected to the grid by August 2018 and every household by May 2019. However, role of solar energy is very limited. The role solar sector would have to play in providing access is only supplying more electricity to the grid...

Although the court has granted a provisional stay on the DGTR order imposing 25 per cent safeguard duty on solar panel imports, cloud of uncertainty still looms large over the stiff targets the government has set. By Subhajit Roy, Group Editor

Conventionally, grid connected photovoltaic energy conversion systems are composed of a DC-DC converter and an inverter. The DC-DC converter is controlled to track the maximum power point of the photovoltaic array and the inverter is controlled to produce current in such a way that the system current has low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and it is in phase with the utility voltage. The efficiency of the conventional system is low because the DC-DC converter and the inverter are connected in series. The purpose of this article is to design a photovoltaic generation system for connection in a three-phase system using only a DC/AC inverter... - Dr. L Ashok Kumar

It is a known fact that India is a rarest of the countries rich with sunlight radiation and offers the best hope to revolutionise solar energy in the world. It receives about 5,000 trillion kWh of radiation annually. For every square kilometre 50 MW of solar power can be commissioned that can yield average annually 42.5 GWh of electricity assuming present PV cell efficiency of 15%. - Jaideep N Malaviya
