Question

Why does solar energy in rajasthan have greater potential as non conventional source of energy?

Answer 1

Its due to its clear skies that it receives direct rays of the sun.

Clouds form on water molecules on account of transpiration by large trees or more precisely on green areas but rajasthan has hardly large trees to provide for , thanks to its sandy landscape which is unfit for the growth of plants

so solar energy is more efficiently withdrawn from sandy areas like rajasthan.

Answer 2

The reasons are:-

I. It is a hot and dry region.

Il. This region has clear sky almost whole

year.

III. Cheaper installation cost.

IV. Solar energy is renewable and

pollution free source of energy.

V. Government's motivation
