ISRO develops an android app for computing the solar energy potential of a place Updated On Tue, Apr 25th, 2017 by Saurenergy The android app is considered to be a “very useful” tool for installation of photovoltaic (PV) solar panels that is used for tapping solar energy, it said. Computation of solar energy potential is essential to select the locations for solar photovoltaic (PV) thermal power plants. The use of remote sensing observations from geostationary satellite sensors […] Read more
Ingot Carving the Future Updated On Mon, Apr 24th, 2017 by Saurenergy Silicon is the most abundant solid element on earth; it makes up more than 25% of the earth’s crust. However, it rarely occurs in elemental form, virtually all of it is existing as compounds. Solar cells are made from silicon boules, polycrystalline structures that have the atomic structure of a single crystal. The most commonly […] Read more

India shows path for cheaper solar energy: World Bank Updated On Fri, Apr 21st, 2017 by Saurenergy “The incentives are clear that moving towards solar energy is better than continuing with the building of coal plants. So we need to find ways of accelerating that process. We hope to come out of these spring meetings with a platform like that in place” It is better to move towards solar energy than to […] Read more
SMARTER SOLAR: How IoT is Revolutionizing Solar Energy Efficiency Updated On Thu, Apr 20th, 2017 by Saurenergy Solar energy is at the forefront of the present-day renewable energy space, making use of the widely abundant and freely available energy of the sun. Globally, solar energy companies have experienced an ever-increasing growth rate. This has resulted in large-scale solar plants with numerous physical assets distributed in remote and wide-spread areas. With such a […] Read more
Half of India’s energy capacity will be from non-fossil fuel sources in 10 years Updated On Wed, Apr 19th, 2017 by Saurenergy If India achieves its target to install 175 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2022 — as committed under the 2015 Paris Agreement — it will not need to install, at least until 2027, any more coal-fired capacity than the 50 GW currently under construction. Non-fossil fuels — renewables, nuclear and large hydroelectric power plants […] Read more
Secondary Solar Market in India Updated On Tue, Apr 18th, 2017 by Saurenergy with the rise of the solar market, there has been a constant pressure on Indian developers to churn their capital. To minimize the pressure the developers are laying the foundation for the advent of the secondary market for solar assets by shopping their rapidly growing solar projects to prospective investors. The merger and acquisition (M&A) […] Read more
Students design camping tent that uses solar energy to meet the electricity needs of the homeless Updated On Tue, Apr 18th, 2017 by Saurenergy The installation of miniaturised solar technology in a mobile tent is the project being pursued by 12 Latino students at the San Fernando Magnet school in Los Angeles County, for which they received a $10,000 grant from the Lemelson InveTeam organisation at the MIT School of Engineering. A group of Hispanic students living in California […] Read more
VIZ-A-VIZ with Shyam M. Gupta, Project Manager – Saurya EnerTech Updated On Sat, Apr 15th, 2017 by Saurenergy “Outsourcing of manpower and other sources might prove costly in case of O&M so it may be good option to take local help for this work. In some cases, if the O&M cost is going high by influences of local unions/demand wages. These all issues may be sorted out in local Gram Panchayats/Local courts by […] Read more
