SOLAR POWER IN INDIA SOLAR POWER GENERATION SOLAR POWER SYSTEM

 The installed capacity of Solar Power in India as
of 31 December 2016 is 9012.66 MW.
 Tamil Nadu is the leading one with 1590 MW
followed by Rajasthan 1317 MW and Gujarat
1158 MW.
 There are two main way to generate electricity from the There are two types of solar thermal system:
Sun. 1. Passive:- It requires no equipment, like when heat
builds up in your car when it is left parked in the sun.
1. Photovoltaic 2. Concentrating Solar power Example:- Thermal chimneys.
2. Active: It requires some way to absorb and collect
solar radiation and then store it.
Example:- Solar thermal power plant.
