India is called a 'sunshine country'.Parts of our country enjoy atleast 250 sunny days ever year.Write a speech reflecting your views on how one can make the best use of solar power-An abundant,eco-friendly and inexhaustible resource of energy.

Blue skies and green grass, we cannot have as long as we use excess of gas. The aftermath and fallout of the excessive use of fossil fuels has adversely affected man. As a consequence, the present condition of our environment is like a patient lying in critical condition in the ICU.
Renewable energy sources are the best bet in the scenario. And what can be a better renewable resource than the sun? In a country like India, if the abundant amount of sunlight available is harnessed properly it could mean an end to the energy crisis. It is the most abundant source of energy. The average global solar radiation is around 5 kilowatt hours (KWH) per square meter per day with the sunshine hours ranging between 2300-4300 per year. India is in the sunny belt of the world. The country receives solar energy equivalent to more than 5000 trillion KWH per year, which is far more than its total annual energy consumption. Besides, it is a renewable and clean energy source. Taking both environmental and economic cost, solar energy works cheaper than fossil fuel resources. Once we master techniques to harness solar energy, it can be a vital source of power on all planets.
Solar energy could be a viable source of power generation for the next 1000 crore years. There are many technologies available for conversion of solar energy into solar power. For instance, solar photovoltaic (SPV) technology, photo galvanic cells, solar steam generators (solar concentrating power), solar tower or solar chimney, radio micrometers and thermopile are some of them.
It is the most relevant and appropriate time to harness solar energy in areas, states, and regions in our country where hydro electrical power generation plants are not viable. Installation of solar-power generation plants in such areas won’t only solve the energy problems, but will also ensure cleaner and purer environment.This is the answer,...
