Going Solar- Conducive Shift to Domestic Solar Electric System

Abstract

Growing needs and heavy consumption of non-renewable energy sources led to the growth of the solar power system across the world. But, this mechanism couldn’t be absorbed by struggling economies as it was expected. Despite the regular and sustainable supply of electricity people across the developing countries were found reluctant to adopt solar technology to meet their daily energy requirements. This paper would explore the ‘emergence & trends of domestic solar power generation system, challenges for RTS technology across Indian Households, discussion on sustainability & reliability of solar power system in developing countries, review consumers’ behavior towards use of solar power system and Identify the Incentives and Subsidies attached with domestic RTS in developing countries’. The study observed a positive perception of people towards domestic RTS and willing to adopt it if potential limitations would be removed. Negative behavior is derived from technical as well as economic limitations of this technology. The overall growth is quite impressive and shows a bright and progressive future ahead.
