Degrading Environment….
Imagine the earth to be a spaceship .
Limited supply of air, water and energy .
All thrash generated carried onboard .
Increase population ∞ energy demand .
Non –renewable resources to last 100 yrs.But long before that the pollution caused by use of fossil fuels will have caused a serious problem .
THE BURNING OF FOSSIL FUELS IS HAVING
A LARGE IMPACT
End of an Era
100 years of exponential growth in fossil fuel use will soon be ending due to environmental and economic constraints

Every second 657 million tons of hydrogen are converted to 653 million tons of helium in our sun .The missing 4 million tons are converted to light and heat energy via \Einstein’s E=MC2 equation and Radiated into space .At an average distance of 93million miles from the sun ,the earth collects approximately 4lbs.of total energy ,which supports lifeOn earth as we know it .
For every kWh of electricity generated by solarenergy ,the following emissions are avoided sincethat kWh need not be generated from a fossil fuelpower plant. In one year ,the approximate avoided emissions in lbs/year are :
360620063002,580,0001MW
36520630258,000100kW
3.6526325,80010kW

You assume the diameter of the earth is 8000 miles and using 2240lb/ton(British ton ),the 4lbs . Can be calculated using the following
formula:
4x106xπx(8x103)2
= 4.14lbs.4xπx(93x106)2 x 4
WHY SOLAR ?
WHY SOLAR ?
>> In a single one hour period, thesun sends enough energy to ourplanet to meet all of ourenergy needs for an entire year.
>>The availability and cost of deliveringenergy from the sun to our planet hasremained amazingly constant for 4 billion years.
Solar Radiat ion in India
• India receives 3000 hrs* of sunshine every year , equivalent to 5000 trillion KWH.
• Most parts in India receive 4 - 7 KWh of solar radiation per sq. meter per day with 250 - 300 sunny days in a year
