solar power conferences 2009
Photovoltaic Science and Engineering Conference took place for the second time in India from 19 January to 23 January, 2009. Science Calcutta Convention Center was the choice of location of the 18th International Photovoltaic Science and Engineering Conference and Exhibition. The event made its return to India after 16 years since the holding the first conference in New Delhi in 1992. Science and Engineering Conference Photovoltaic is said to be one of three major international conferences in the area Solar Photovoltaic. Although focused on the Asia Pacific region, however, saw participants from all over the world, including the solar group Reliance. Moreover Solar Group unit of the exhibition also showed the largest producers, wholesalers, suppliers and systems suppliers international solar industry.
The exhibition displayed a wide range of solar technology covering new developments and industry trends. It offers a unique insight full range of products to the international solar industry had to offer. He was one of the biggest events of solar technology in the sub-continent which covers an area of 35,000 square feet with a focus on photovoltaics, solar thermal technology and solar architecture. The products and services were presented by participants from over 30 nations. The event saw the participation of over 600 exhibitors including a total of 57 Indian and international companies.
Solar Group unit that is part of Reliance Industries had exhibited its wide range of solar modules, solar lighting products and solar water purifiers. Group dependency is also shown customization of urban and rural solar solutions, along with its implementation capacity. The exhibition attracted the attention and recognition for their innovation and the feasibility of implementation. Solar photovoltaics is gaining popularity because it generates electricity that is clean and plentiful. The growth rate of the industry PV is 40%. The initiative is to promote widespread implementation of clean energy to replace fossil-based fuels. In a developing country's economy like India, an abundant supply of energy will be par excellence for rapid economic development. It is expected that the Indian photovoltaic industry will grow rapidly over the next five years and to attract large scale investments in the near future.
Arrays of cells containing materials such as amorphous silicon, cadmium telluride, Photovoltaics so called. These cells convert sunlight into direct current electricity, generating electricity. All issues with solar photovoltaics were discussed at the conference as well as financial and policy issues. It is estimated that by 2030 solar electricity will contribute about 5 to 7% of the total energy mix. The contribution of solar energy will grow at a rapid rate thereafter. However, the current contribution solar energy to the global energy mix is very small and needs to be increased to control energy-related problems such as global warming, promoting and the development of clean energy sources.
