Institutional requirements: Creating policy and institutional environment for Solar power industry
Falling oil price is a mirage and a temporary phenomenon. In future both rising prices and climate/environment concerns will make it imperative to promote solar power in a big way as that is India' s natural advantage.Also falling costs and minitiaruization of solar components( higher kw/per unit area of panels/cell) will make solar power increasingly attractive. So who will be next Tulsi Tanti of Solar industry.(may be Tulsi Tanti himself as he set eyes on solar after his phenomenal success .)
The transition from TEXTILE industry to wind industry must be replicable to solar.
For this a Special Cell must be created comprising the following ministries with clear cut responsibilities for their solar cell.
- Renewable energy ministry( for obvious reasons, tech expertise)
- Commerce Ministry ( for fast tracking proper incentive policies for import/export of components
- External affair ministry may play a n important role in raising contacts/funds(indirectly)
- Ofcourse Cell for them may have to approved by a parliamentary process(perhaps?)
- Links with external agencies like UN to support research and development
More later
