Installed global capacity of solar panels has increased massively in the past decade. Today, total installed capacity of photovoltaic cells is estimated 900 GW.
However, there has been a mystery flaw that has been taking away potential electricity from the photovoltaic cells. Solar cells only achieve 20 percent efficiency—for every kW of equivalent sunlight, about 200W of electrical power can be generated.
During the first hours of operation after installation, a solar panel's efficiency drops from 20 percent to about 18 percent. An absolute drop of 2 percent in efficiency may not seem like a big deal, but it’s a 10% drop in electric generation.
NEED OF THE HOUR : RENEWABLE BIOMASS FUEL
One of the greatest challenges of 21st century is to meet the growing demand for energy for transportation, heating, and industrial processes.
Excessive consumption of fossil fuels, particularly in large urban areas, has resulted in generation of high levels of pollution during the last few decades.
All petroleum-based fuels can be replaced by renewable biomass fuels such as bioethanol, biodiesel, bio-hydrogen. Bioethanol is one of the most promising biofuels from renewable sources. Indian gov intends to raise ethanol blending in petrol to 20% by 2025 from the current 7%.
In the Old West, it was common for people to put their valuable possessions in a coffee can and keep it under the mattress. Since this approach involved no transaction costs,
the value of the coffee can in the long term was entirely dependent on the wisdom and foresight used to pick the objects to in the coffee can. Impressed with the power of this approach –
Of buying great companies and then letting them for ten years – Robert Kirby coined the term “Coffee Can Investing”.
