Benefits of Solar Energy

For common man, the solar energy can emerge as a panacea for households facing huge power bills.
Generating electricity from solar means les consumption of fossil fuels, reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emission from local power plants. By switching over to solar power, we will be doing our duty to combat global; warming, and reduce our nation’s dependence on foreign energy sources.
Solar Photovoltaic Energy Benefits
It operates on the freely available solar energy thus saving the expenditure on electricity and fossil fuels.
No fear of power cuts
It is trouble free, pollution free and noise free, has a long life and is reliable.
Easy to handle and operate
Negligible cost of operation and maintenance.
Benefits Of Using A Solar Cooker
In an age where domestic fuel costs are rising each year, the solar cooker is a real boon.
Reasonably priced, easy to use and completely trouble free, the solar cooker is an ideal supplement to the conventional cooking appliances.
Can be used almost throughout the year
No fuel required for cooking.
All items can be cooked except the fried and chapattis.
Cooking is safe and clean.
Solar cooking is entirely non-polluting and has no ill effects on health.
Food cooked in solar cooker tastes better, is more nutritious and healthy.
No need to keep close watch during cooking as the process is slow.
Cooking time is around 1.30 to 2.30 hours.
Food remains hot as long as the glass assembly is not opened.
Three LPG cylinders can be saved annually as a result of solar cooking.
Operation and maintenance cost is almost negligible.
Benefits On Account Of Solar Desalination System
We can get distilled water.
The cost of works out to be an economical proposition.
High efficiency FTL can reduce energy consumption by atleast 10%;
Lighting contributes to a substantial amount to peak electric loads.
The efficient lighting technologies can easily substitute conventional inefficient technologies.
The potential for reduction in energy consumption and peak load reduction is very high.
The economics are attractive.
